Description:

A Replication Game, or a one-day event that brings together faculty, post-docs, and PhD students to collaborate on replicating papers published in high-ranking journals from economics, finance, political science, and psychology. Participation entails attending (or watching the recording of) a virtual information session before the event, meeting with your assigned team to develop a game plan, attending the event, and helping to write a short pre-print report afterwards.

Besides helping improve the integrity of research, participants contribute as co-authors of a meta-paper that combines replications from multiple Replication Games. Students will also have the opportunity to connect with and learn from the faculty participating in the event.

Please email Emilio Lehoucq (emilio@northwestern.edu) with any questions. Please email Abel Brodeur (ABrodeur@uOttawa.ca), cc’ing Emilio Lehoucq (emilio@northwestern.edu), to register for the event.
