If it wasn't clear I was responding to the replication issue, primarily on the 
basis of a summary in a summary posted in a higher education newsletter. I will 
now belatedly read the full paper.

Hi

Some notable lapses I think. No mention of meta-analysis that I saw. And the 
Science editor's comment that marginal results not be published is exactly 
wrong. Every finding should be published so that studies can be aggregated. 
Psychology made a big mistake when it turned from small papers consisting 
mostly of methods and results for single studies to mega papers with multiple 
studies and (inflated?) intros and discussions. Thes problems are exacerbated 
by calls for larger and larger Ns.

You all might find an article published on the Five Thirty Eight website (link 
http://fivethirtyeight.com)  useful when talking about this issue with 
students. The article includes a very nice interactive demonstration of 
p-hacking that I think will help students to understand that concept. Beyond 
that, the article takes a balanced approach to the problems of replicability, 
the growth in the number of journal articles being published, fraud and other 
related topics.  The title is Science Isn’t Broken by , Christie Aschwanden. 
Here is the link http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/science-isnt-broken/

It is true that we only got a D+ :( but 68% is quite a bit higher :) than some 
of the estimates of reproducibility I have heard bandied about (which are close 
to zero).

          This article is going on the reading list for my grad students in 
stats.  Once we have covered power and publication biases this article should, 
I hope, lead to some lively discussion.
