Corrupt editors in "top" journals need to go. It's unacceptable that a publication of a "no name" junior has to clear a much higher bar in terms of pleasing reviewers than a publication of somebody from "the club". It's unacceptable how comments get blocked if the author is "in the club".

We are hiring! Join a strong team to have a real impact on how science is done😊

🚨I4R is looking to hire postdoc fellows in public health and computer science!

The postdoc will join a team of researchers and help mass reproduce studies in leading public health journals or develop AI replicator agents.

Come joun us in Münster, it will be awesome😉😎

I4R Replication Games coming to Münster! @i4replication.bsky.social @aufdroeseler.bsky.social @fialalenka.bsky.social

The Brno Replication Games were a success!🥳 Many thanks to our awesome replicators who spotted a range of coding errors and fixed incorrectly specified models. Many thanks also to @econmuni.bsky.social for having us: you are the reason economists love coming back every year😊

Off to the #BrnoReplicationGames at @econmuni.bsky.social, it's going to be epic!

🚨 We have a comment on Begum et al (2018) forthcoming in @readdemography.bsky.social - see link below! @i4replication.bsky.social

#GDRI_rep Update 8a: Major updates coming up over the next few weeks.

1st update: We reproduced "Parent–teacher meetings and student outcomes" some time ago. The paper was then retracted by the editors of the Euro Econ Rev.

Additional studies are connected (see diagram)

Only a one week left left to register to the Brno Replication Games on Sept 7th. Virtual participation is possible and coauthorship to a meta paper is granted.

Cool event reminder! Please note we now have a number of €200 awards for PhD students travelling to Galway to participate. If you wish to be considered for an award, please get in touch (contact details at end of Matthew’s thread). Reposts welcome! Cc: @i4replication.bsky.social

The Tilburg Replication Games were a success! Many thanks to the replicators for making it a great event. 😊

ESA econ folks, join us! It's going to be a ton of fun, Brno always delivers :)

There have been a number of recent articles on statistical power in quantitative political science. This is something that I think deserves more attention and discussion. A short thread of the articles I have read. 🧵

Final call for the Tilburg Replication Games! Are you a social scientist who is interested in replicability/reproducibility, and open science? Do you want to contribute to a large-scale meta analysis and become a co-author? Then sign up today! Online and in-person participation are possible.

Come join us in Tilburg! #reproducibility #openscience #econsky

So Science retracted the arsenic life paper because it was wrong? If that's the new standard for retraction, I think they've got a lot of work ahead of them

We have 8 replication games over the next 13 weeks (Tilburg, Bordeaux, Brno, Galway, Berlin, Paris, Lyon and Ottawa)! Not too late to register to any of these events:

Join us @rwi.bsky.social & @i4replication.bsky.social as replicator for a meta-reproduction on deforestation. We pay replicators 2,500 EUR. Experience with geocoded data & background in environmental science are assets. 1/2 bit.ly/4ke2p6o

I really recommend this podcast episode on the story of this paper and the strange non-responses from the journal. A depressing case of how science fails to be self-correcting even in the face of extremely obvious errors.

Here’s a New York Times photo of the Chicago “No Kings” rally. NYT said the march that followed spanned at least 10 blocks.

An engraved paving stone that says "publish." The word appears twice, in mirror image, so you can see it whether you're coming or going.

Christ's sake, Chicago, I'm just trying to go for a walk.

Thanks for the great comments, #CEA😊🇨🇦
