INTRODUCTION: Reproducibility is a defining feature of science, but the extent to which it characterizes current research is unknown. Scientific claims should not gain credence because of the status or authority of their originator but by the replicability of their supporting evidence. Even research of exemplary quality may have irreproducible empirical findings because of random or systematic ...

The reproducibility of an experimental result is a fundamental assumption in science. Yet, results that are merely confirmatory of previous findings are given low priority and can be difficult to publish. Furthermore, the complex and chaotic nature of biological systems imposes limitations on the replicability of scientific experiments. This essay explores the importance and limits of reproduci...

Task-oriented dialogues can normally be divided into subdialogues, each of which reflects collaboration on a particular substep of the task, and which we call ’transactions’. We have devised a way of identifying transactions and their associated actions for HCRC Map Task dialogues, and we have tested the replicability of our coding scheme using naive subjects.
