TL;DR: A large-scale assessment suggests that experimental reproducibility in psychology leaves a lot to be desired, and correlational tests suggest that replication success was better predicted by the strength of original evidence than by characteristics of the original and replication teams.

TL;DR: The OpenMx data structures are introduced—these novel structures define the user interface framework and provide new opportunities for model specification and a discussion of directions for future development.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors develop strategies for improving scientific practices and knowledge accumulation that account for ordinary human motivations and biases, and demonstrate that the persistence of false findings can be mitigated with strategies that make the fundamental but abstract accuracy motive competitive with the more tangible and concrete incentive.

TL;DR: Strategies for improving scientific practices and knowledge accumulation are developed that account for ordinary human motivations and biases and can reduce the persistence of false findings.

TL;DR: There is evidence that open research practices bring significant benefits to researchers relative to more traditional closed practices, including increases in citations, media attention, potential collaborators, job opportunities and funding opportunities.
