Code success outcomes #5

@LukasWallrich

Description

@LukasWallrich

As promised, here the success outcomes.

  • success when the authors interpret their replication as successful (e.g., “we successfully replicated…”)
  • failure when the authors interpret their replication as unsuccessful (e.g., “we failed to replicate…”)
  • mixed when the authors describe their results as mixed or as a partial replication. If they report a detail that was diffferent but still conclude success or failure overall, we trust them on the overall judgement.

There are a three more specific categories that are used less frequently:

  • uninformative when the authors explicitly describe their results as uninformative, e.g. due to a small sample size
  • statistically successful but flawed when the authors replicate the original finding but primarily do so to show that the method is flawed, and that an alternative analysis yields different results
  • descriptive only when authors describe patterns but do not draw comparative conclusions.
