Predicting Replication Outcomes
Please contact ICES Office Manager (sbahabib@gmu.edu) for Zoom link.
Abstract
Why are there so many false positive results in the published scientific literature? And what is the actual share of results that do not replicate in different literatures in the experimental social sciences? I will discuss several recent large replication projects on direct and conceptual replications, as well as our studies on “wisdom-of-crowds” mechanisms like prediction markets and forecasting surveys where researchers attempt to predict replication outcomes as well as new outcomes.
