RETRACTED ARTICLE: High replicability of newly discovered social-behavioural findings is achievable

The Reproducibility Crisis in Psychology

We are used to treating science as a source of knowledge that can be trusted a priori. But is this really the case? How much can we trust the results of psychological studies when making important decisions about our mental health and well-being. This collection contains articles devoted to checking psychological experiments — how well they can be replicated. In doing so, I examine two independent cohorts of studies: the reproducibility of the experiments themselves within large independent studies, as well as the reproducibility of meta-analyses. The latter are especially relevant, since the media often refer specifically to their conclusions.
