About Replicate This

Replications and reproductions lie at the core of many research disciplines, and yet they are rarely conducted. We believe that the current culture of criticism makes it difficult to replicate. For example, a failed replication is sometimes seen as an attack on the original authors, when it should simply be viewed as a shared interest in better understanding scientific phenomena.

This registry exists to change the culture of criticism surrounding replications. With it, we want to support a constructive and collaborative culture around scientific replication and reproducibility.

The Value of Community

We believe in the immense value of a collaborative research community. By providing this open-source infrastructure, we invite researchers across all disciplines to use it, nominate influential studies, and conduct highly valuable replications together.

Supporting Journals

This project is part of the Replication Journal Federation - a network of free journals that support replications.

If you are conducting a replication or reproduction, there are many high-quality, non-commercial journals that explicitly support and welcome these submissions.

You can find a comprehensive, curated list of journals supporting replications and reproductions here:
