RepliCrisis

RepliCrisis’ is a Shiny app game that simulates evalutating replication studies based on the framework presented in Hoijtink, Mulder, van Lissa & Gu (2019).


Follow these steps to play:


  • Set your sample size (for groups within study), difficulty, alpha level, and seed for reproducibility.
  • Define thresholds for the Bayes Factor and Posterior Model Probability to assess evidence in favor of the original study.
  • Conduct the original study to generate data and form a hypothesis.
  • Show diagnostics and descriptives to understand statistical results and hypotheses.
  • Conduct a replication study, using swap controls to match the original study’s results.
  • Run replication analysis to evaluate the results against the original hypothesis.
  • Start a new game by conducting a new original study.
