Learning Networking by Reproducing Research Results
Students taking Stanford’s Advanced Topics in Networking class have to select a networking research paper and reproduce a result from it as part of a three-week pair project.

Whether Psychology Research Is Improving Depends on Whom You Ask
Whether Psychology Research Is Improving Depends on Whom You Ask
Psychologists are pessimistic about the state of their field but want to improve, a survey shows. But are new measures working?
When the Revolution Came for Amy Cuddy
As a young social psychologist, she played by the rules and won big: an influential study, a viral TED talk, a prestigious job at Harvard. Then, suddenly, the rules changed.

Steps Towards Transparency in Research Publishing
As research and editorial processes become increasingly open, scientists and editors need to be proactive but also alert to risks.
Publishing a Reproducible Paper
The perceived and actual barriers experienced by researchers attempting to do reproducible research.
Faculty Promotion Must Assess Reproducibility
Research institutions should explicitly seek job candidates who can be frankly self-critical of their work, says Jeffrey Flier.
Creating Incentives to Address the Replication Crisis in Science
Scientists have few direct incentives to replicate other researchers’ work, including precious little funding to do replications. Can that change?

eLife Supports Development of Open Technology Stack for Publishing Reproducible Manuscripts Online
The Reproducible Document Stack will allow authors to submit their manuscripts in a format that includes embedded code blocks and computed outputs, and for publishers to preserve these assets in an enhanced version of the published online article.

Fostering Reproducibility in Industry-Academia Research
Cultural differences between industry and academia can create or increase difficulties in reproducing research findings.
A Long Journey to Reproducible Results
Replicating our work took four years and 100,000 worms but brought surprising discoveries, explain Gordon J. Lithgow, Monica Driscoll and Patrick Phillips.
Is Science Broken? Or Is It Self-Correcting?
Two years ago this month, news of the replication crisis reached the front page of the New York Times.
The Distribution of P-values in Medical Research Articles Suggested Selective Reporting Associated with Statistical Significance
The Distribution of P-values in Medical Research Articles Suggested Selective Reporting Associated with Statistical Significance
Published P-values provide a window into the global enterprise of medical research. The aim of this study was to use the distribution of published P-values to estimate the relative frequencies of null and alternative hypotheses and to seek irregularities suggestive of publication bias.
What a Nerdy Debate about P-Values Shows about Science
The case for, and against, redefining "statistical significance."
How Better Training Can Help Fix the Research Reproducibility Crisis
Giving researchers the data skills they need to share, review, and validate each other’s work, writes Erin Becker.
Understanding the Demand for Reproducible Research Articles
Life scientists told us whether they would like to share and read computationally reproducible research articles.

There is too little sound research on journal peer review.
The Reproducibility of Research and the Misinterpretation of P-Values
Science is endangered by statistical misunderstanding, and by university presidents and research funders who impose perverse incentives on scientists.
