Event details
Reproducibility in Economics and Management: Current state and challenges
Reproducibility and replicability are fundamental to the credibility of empirical research, yet their enforcement remains inconsistent across economics and business journals. Based on a large-scale reproducibility study (Fišar et al, Management Science, 2024), I explore key determinants of (non-)reproducibility, including data availability, methodological complexity, and author and reviewer characteristics. I discuss the institutional and incentive challenges to increasing reproducibility in economics and management research, as well as first policy proposals to tackle them.
