Replications
- The relationship between state-level carbon emissions and average working hours in the United States: a replication study, Mallinson & Cheng (2021). Environmental Sociology. Outcome recorded: successful.
We replicated their analyses by including more recent data and confirmed the linkage between the average hours worked in a state and annual overall CO2 emissions.
Outcome read from the abstract. View paper - SCORE secondary data replication of Fitzgerald et al. (2018), Mallinson et al. (2026). Outcome recorded: successful.
The average hours worked is positively correlated with state CO2emissions in the United States(b= 0.535139, SE = 0.139448, p= 0.000143).
Outcome read from OSF report.
