TLDR
This article evaluated the replicability of social psychological research and found that failure to replicate a finding does not necessarily indicate that the original result was wrong, although evidence of replication failures resulted in important methodological changes, the 2015 Open Science Collaboration findings sufficed to make the point.Abstract:
Several hundred research groups attempted replications of published effects in so-called Many Labs studies involving thousands of research participants. Given this enormous investment, it seems timely to assess what has been learned and what can be learned from this type of project. My evaluation addresses four questions: First, do these replication studies inform us about the replicability of social psychological research? Second, can replications detect fraud? Third, does the failure to replicate a finding indicate that the original result was wrong? Finally, do these replications help to support or disprove any social psychological theories? Although evidence of replication failures resulted in important methodological changes, the 2015 Open Science Collaboration findings sufficed to make the point. To assess the state of social psychology, we have to evaluate theories rather than randomly selected research findings.read more

Kinds of Replication: Examining the Meanings of “Conceptual Replication” and “Direct Replication”
TL;DR: The enactment perspective as mentioned in this paper is a relatively recent development in philosophy of science and science studies, and some of its core axioms are not new to psychology, and the article concludes by revisiting psychologists' previous calls to apprehend the dynamism of psychological reality to appreciate how scientific practices actively and unavoidably participate in performativity of reality.

TL;DR: The use of connectivity methods has increased in the neuroimaging field, providing important insights to physical sensory processing, such as vision, audition, and touch, but established techniques have largely not been rigorously applied to imaging studies on the chemical senses, leaving network insights overlooked.

Proposal of a Selection Protocol for Replication of Studies in Sports and Exercise Science
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed a replication protocol for sports and exercise science that uses multiple inclusion and exclusion criteria for replication study selection, including: the year of publication and citation rankings, research disciplines, study types, the research question and key dependent variable, study methods and feasibility.

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.
