...) routine checking of the implementation of a given study, (2) replication of the results, and (3) reproduction of the phenomenon. I introduce the extra level because, like Allan Franklin and Colin Howson, I wish to separate replication, “where the replicator’s procedures are intended to be very...

... Advisers to the MIT network. It also reveals the MIT economics department as a community of self-replicating economists who are largely trained by a few key advisers who were mostly trained at MIT as well. MIT has a disproportionate share of graduates who remain in American academe, which may...

... that their theories are at least data-constrained leads to a concern with the nature of empirical evidence itself. For economists what is of particular importance is the nature of, and meaning to be found in, the idea that empirical knowledge is or should be replicable. From his own perspective, developed...

... they prefer the gamble with the $16 prize and who are willing to pay more for the gamble with the $4 prize. These claims were predictions of novel facts, and they were confirmed by experiments reported in a 1971 article. The results were strikingly replicated in an experiment in which...

... that counts. If investment projects are unique and lumpy, so that they cannot be replicated at any desired level, it is the mar- ginal efficiency of the marginal project that is equated to the rate of inter- est. This will be lower than the marginal efficiency of intramarginal proj- ects. Finally...

... subsequent reputation (369)?
