- Maybe the replications were false negatives.
- Maybe the original study has a too small sample size.
- Maybe the researchers engaged in questionable research practices.
What is p-hacking?
Running different types of analyses in order to find a significant effect.
What is HARKing?
Hypothesizing after results are known; looking for hypotheses that fit with the data.
What are three parts of open science that improve scientific practice?

What is theory testing mode?
A correlational or experimental research to investigate support for a theory.
What is generalization mode?
When researchers want to generlize their findings to other populations or settings.
Welke human biases spelen een rol in het vaker vinden van significante resultaten?
