Conceptualizing and Evaluating Replication Across Domains of Behavioral Research

Applications 2021-07-21 v1

Abstract

We discuss the authors' conceptualization of replication, in particular the false dichotomy of direct versus conceptual replication intrinsic to it, and suggest a broader one that better generalizes to other domains of psychological research. We also discuss their approach to the evaluation of replication results and suggest moving beyond their dichotomous statistical paradigms and employing hierarchical / meta-analytic statistical models.
