What is reproducibility?

This module provides an in-depth introduction to reproducibility through the work of TIER2 and iRise. The purpose and concept of reproducibility is introduced, working definitions are provided for important concepts in relation to reproducibility and replicability, and the futures of reproducibility and illustrated from the perspective of different stakeholders.

What is the evidence for reproducibility in different epistemic contexts?

Conceptions, roles & pertinence of reproducibility are closely linked to different principal modes of knowledge production within & across research fields, so-called ‘epistemic contexts’. TIER2 mapped the contextual factors to various dimensions of ‘reproducibility’, as well as pertinent framework conditions (e.g., political, ethical, social, legal) that may affect the uptake of reproducibility practices in qualitative and machine learning fields. The literature reviews enabled analyses of diverse conceptions, roles & barriers of reproducibility & permits identification of relevant & targeted tools.

New Tools and Services for Reproducibility

TIER2 aims to better understand the causes, consequences and possible solutions of perceived poor levels of reproductivity of research across research contexts. With a focus on social, life, and computer sciences, as well as research publishers and funders, the project aims to increase awareness, build capacity, and propose innovative solutions sensitive to varied research cultures. Central to its approach are eight Pilot activities designed to develop, implement, and evaluate new reproducibility-related tools and practices.
