I had the privilege of contributing to one of the largest reproducibility projects in econ & political science—now out in Nature.
350+ papers, one question: how robust are published results?
Short answer: fairly robust—but not invariant.
Huge team effort 👏
🧵1/ Our first meta-science paper (with 350+ coauthors) is published today in Nature. It presents one of the largest-ever reproducibility projects in economics & political science.

• 85% of results reproducible
• 72% robust to alternative specs
I contributed a replication of “Mone... (1/2)
