The Reproducibility and Robustness of Economics and Political Science by Method and Field
A mass replication project compares reproducibility and robustness across methods and fields in economics and political science.
Research brief
Question and contribution.
Using 248 published studies and more than 15,000 reanalyses by over 1,000 researchers, this project maps computational reproducibility and robustness across economics and political science. It combines a many-analyst approach with researcher forecasts to compare patterns across methods and fields.
Paper
Abstract.
This project synthesizes computational reproducibility and robustness evidence from 248 published economics and political-science studies. More than 1,000 researchers conducted over 15,000 reanalyses, allowing the project to compare reproducibility and robustness across methods and fields.
