We use a rigorous three-stage many-analysts design to assess how different researcher decisions—specifically data cleaning, research design, and the interpretation of a policy question—affect the variation in estimated treatment effects. A total of 146 research teams each completed the same...

Robustness reproductions and replicability discussions are on the rise in response to concerns about a potential credibility crisis in economics. This paper proposes a protocol to structure reproducibility and replicability assessments, with a focus on robustness. Starting with a computational...

Transparent communication of robustness is essential in empirical research, yet existing tools can be difficult to interpret. This paper introduces the robustness dashboard, a graphical tool that visualizes the results of robustness reproductions into a single, intuitive graph. The robustness...

We provide a "big picture" of what Open Science is and what benefits, limitations, and risks it entails for agricultural economists. We show that Open Science comprises various aspects, such as the accessibility of science, transparency of scientific processes, open and findable, accessible,...
