I’d love a good explanation of this, because I feel I only understand pieces but not enough to explain it to others.
I know
there are issues where only significant results get published, so if someone redoes a published experiment and it fails, the failure to replicate doesn’t get published. (File drawer problem?)
people aren’t incentivized to replicate at all, since there’s not much career reward for not doing something new
The winner’s curse something something
