Cultures of Trial and Error: Replication in Social Psychology
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: For the last 13 years psychology has been in the grip of a replication crisis. The crisis was declared because time and again the results of earlier, often influential research could not be reproduced in replication studies. Social psychology in particular was affected, and much of the discussion has focussed on this field. Roughly speaking three different lessons have been drawn from these failed replications.
