Here we test the feasibility of using decision markets to select studies for replication and provide evidence about the replicability of online experiments. Social scientists (n = 162) traded on the ...

A new study published in Nature Human Behaviour suggests that a tool similar to a stock market could help scientists identify research findings that are likely to hold up to scrutiny. The study, ...

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...

A recent study sought to replicate published experimental research using large language models, finding that human behavior is replicated surprisingly well overall, but deviates in important ways that ...

What do Thomas Edison and 2010 Nobel Prize in physics winners Konstantin Novoselov and Andre Geim have in common? According to a recent publication from the lab of Rice University’s James Tour, it ...

A self-replicating form of artificial life has arisen from a digital “primordial soup” of random data, despite a lack of explicit rules or goals to encourage such behaviour. Researchers believe it is ...

Can AI become truly harmful? As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to grow and advance every day, it also raises unavoidable questions about its potential risks and benefits. While AI has the ...

The vibrations of the “replication crisis” continue to be felt throughout the social sciences, and particularly within psychology. Being able to replicate findings is among the most fundamental ...
