Linking publications to replications Marcus, Bekkers, Weinerova

How can we link publications to replications and generalizations — so that anyone reading a paper can instantly see whether its findings have been retested? Imagine traffic lights on Google Scholar: green for replicated, red for failed, gray for never checked. This session digs into how to make replications findable, what a "failed" replication in a different context really means (France is different), and who should build the infrastructure. Leading the session: Jan Marcus is a professor of applied statistics at Freie Universität Berlin and co-editor of the Journal of Comments and Replications in Economics — and a self-declared fan of replication games. Rene Bekkers is a professor of philanthropy in the Department of Sociology at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, where he studies which findings in philanthropy research actually replicate and helps extend meta-check, a tool that screens preprints for transparency. Josefina Weinerova is a postdoctoral researcher at Birkbeck, University of London, working on Making Replications Count, a project to increase the visibility and findability of replication studies. Recorded at the Institute for Replication's Barcelona Workshop, July 18, 2026. Allegedly Doesn't Replicate is a podcast by the Institute for Replication, where we put research to the test — again.
