  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

    Brian Nosek of University of Virginia and colleagues sought out to replicate 100 different studies, all published in 2008. [5] The project pulled these studies from three different journals, Psychological Science, the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, and the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, published in 2008 to see if they could get the same ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis

    Study replication rates were 23% for the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 48% for Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, and 38% for Psychological Science. Studies in the field of cognitive psychology had a higher replication rate (50%) than studies in the field of social psychology (25%). [77]

  5. Replication (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    In engineering, science, and statistics, replication is the process of repeating a study or experiment under the same or similar conditions. It is a crucial step to test the original claim and confirm or reject the accuracy of results as well as for identifying and correcting the flaws in the original experiment. [ 1 ]

  6. Single-subject design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-subject_design

    In design of experiments, single-subject curriculum or single-case research design is a research design most often used in applied fields of psychology, education, and human behaviour in which the subject serves as his/her own control, rather than using another individual/group. Researchers use single-subject design because these designs are ...

  7. Case study (psychology) - Wikipedia

    In psychology case studies are most often used in clinical research to describe rare events and conditions, which contradict well established principles in the field of psychology. [1] Case studies are generally a single-case design, but can also be a multiple-case design, where replication instead of sampling is the criterion for inclusion. [2]
