A typical empirical study involves choosing a sample, a research design, and an analysis
path. Variation in such choices across studies leads to heterogeneity in results that introduce …

We propose a framework for evaluating reproducibility and replicability in economics.
Reproducibility is defined as testing if the results of an original study can be reproduced …

Data analysis is challenging as analysts must navigate nuanced decisions that may yield
divergent conclusions. AI assistants have the potential to support analysts in planning their …

Using new data from US and global markets, we revisit market risk premium predictability by

With the help of more than 700 reviewers, we assess the reproducibility of nearly 500
articles published in the journal Management Science before and after the introduction of a …

As key players in financial markets and the broader industry, financial professionals are
increasingly used as experimental research participants. We review over 50 studies …

This study explores how researchers' analytical choices affect the reliability of scientific

Non-standard errors capture variation due to differences in research design choices. We
document large variation in design choices in the context of asset pricing factor models and …

We discuss a relatively new meta-scientific research design: many-analyst studies that
attempt to assess the replicability and credibility of research based on large-scale …

Many-analysts studies explore how well an empirical claim withstands plausible alternative
analyses of the same dataset by multiple, independent analysis teams. Conclusions from …
