Meta-assessment of bias in science
What is this about?
This study examined the issue of biases in research that is considered to be the cause of reproducibility crisis. The results showed that extent of biases varied across fields and was relatively small. The authors did not find enough evidence that would indicate that biases were related to research productivity. They suggested that potential risk factors for producing unreliable results could be early-career status of a researcher, isolation, and lack of research integrity.
