  2. Reproducibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproducibility

    Reproducibility, closely related to replicability and repeatability, is a major principle underpinning the scientific method.For the findings of a study to be reproducible means that results obtained by an experiment or an observational study or in a statistical analysis of a data set should be achieved again with a high degree of reliability when the study is replicated.

  3. Reproducibility Project - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproducibility_Project

    [3] [4] The results of the Reproducibility Project might also affect public trust in psychology. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] Lay people who learned about the low replication rate found in the Reproducibility Project subsequently reported a lower trust in psychology, compared to people who were told that a high number of the studies had replicated.

  4. Replication (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_(statistics)

    A low p-value in a replication study indicates that the results are not likely due to random chance. [6] For example, if a study found a statistically significant effect of a test condition on an outcome, and the replication find statistically significant effects as well, this suggests that the original finding is likely reproducible.

  5. Replication crisis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis

    Reproducible and replicable findings was the best predictor of generalisability beyond historical and geographical contexts, indicating that for social sciences, results from a certain time period and place can meaningfully drive as to what is universally present in individuals.

  6. Accuracy and precision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accuracy_and_precision

    According to ISO 5725-1, accuracy consists of trueness (proximity of the mean of measurement results to the true value) and precision (repeatability or reproducibility of the measurement). While precision is a description of random errors (a measure of statistical variability ), accuracy has two different definitions:

  7. Reliability (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reliability_(statistics)

    Scores that are highly reliable are precise, reproducible, and consistent from one testing occasion to another. That is, if the testing process were repeated with a group of test takers, essentially the same results would be obtained.

  8. Scientific method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_method

    The history of scientific method considers changes in the methodology of scientific inquiry, not the history of science itself. The development of rules for scientific reasoning has not been straightforward; scientific method has been the subject of intense and recurring debate throughout the history of science, and eminent natural philosophers and scientists have argued for the primacy of ...

  9. Testability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testability

    The practical feasibility of observing a reproducible series of such counterexamples if they do exist. In short, a hypothesis is testable if there is a possibility of deciding whether it is true or false based on experimentation by anyone. This allows anyone to decide whether a theory can be supported or refuted by data.
