Much of what we know, or think we know, comes to us from scientific research. Serious academic journals have very high standards for publication, and passing the peer-review process is not an easy thing. Still, there is room for error. How many scientific studies, often assumed to be part of a laboriously accumulated body of knowledge, do actually hold up if we revisit them? Professor Anna Dreber Almenberg of Stockholm School of Economics is part of an international cross-disciplinary group of researchers attempting to replicate previously published studies to assess just what credence we should give to various findings. The results may surprise you, and contain many lessons for future research.
