Today, the SCORE programme released its main results. Our team member @priyasilverstein.com contributed to two papers: – Reproducibility: doi.org/10.1038/s415... – Replicability: doi.org/10.1038/s415... All papers: www.nature.com/collections/... A valuable contribution to open and robust science. 👏

SCORE, a collaboration of 865 researchers, is now released as three papers in Nature, six preprints, and a lot of data (cos.io/score/). SCORE examined repeatability of findings from the social-behavioral sciences and tested whether human and automated methods could predict replicability.
