Author: Andreas Ortmann

Abstract: I will document, and discuss in some detail, the replication, and credibility, crisis in the social sciences (in particular psychology and economics); I will enumerate a dozen steps that need to be taken to address replicability and reproducability. In this context, I will talk briefly about a couple of my own recent studies.
