Argue about replication before you do it
Brian Nosek and Timothy Errington of the US Center for Open Science managed 50 attempts to replicate experiments from high-impact cancer papers — and saw first-hand how confusion and disagreement reigned (particularly when replications seem to contradict the findings). They argue that original authors and independent replicators should make a ‘precommitment’ to a replication experiment that both think will be meaningful, whatever the results — and document their agreement using preregistration or a Registered Report.
