The recent history of the replication crisis in psychology & how Open Science can be part of the solution

Goethe University Frankfurt

Hosted by AFC Lab & CARLA Talk Series

· 70 minutes
Frankfurt am Main, Germany · Hybrid

Abstract

In recent years, more and more evidence has accumulated showing that many studies in psychological research cannot be replicated, effects are often overestimated, and little is publicly known about unsuccessful studies. What are the mechanisms behind this crisis? In this talk, I will explain how we got there and why it is still difficult to break free from the current system. I will further explain which role Open Science plays within the replication crisis and how it can help to improve science. This might sound like a pessimistic, negative talk, but I will end it on a positive note, I promise!
