| Abstract: |
The article argues that systematic efforts to reproduce scientific studies are misguided and should be replaced by addressing the root causes of experimental error. Topics include distinguishing between replication and robustness, identifying five key sources of scientific error; and proposing educational and systemic reforms to improve research integrity. |
