You Want to See My Data? I Thought We Were Friends
I generally agree, but their solution (fund boring research, publish only in journals with high standard) is in direct contrast to what they stated earlier. It&#x27;s basically saying yes, we have bad incentives, but we could ignore them. That&#x27;s not going to happen; shiny new research <i>will</i> attract people and funding. Especially more than &quot;boring&quot; <i>what we found before was indeed a finding</i>-research.<p>Now, I don&#x27;t have a good solution either, unfortunately. What might work is that we require replication work for a PhD or have a certain percentage of a journal dedicated to verification. That, combined with some meta-studies to reward people with citations for replication, might work without fully swimming against the current.<p>It&#x27;s a hard problem, really.
