Description

WEBINAR REPLICATE REPLICATE: HOW YOU CAN TAKE PART
SESSION 6: Questionable research practices outside of the lab

Social scientists are increasingly interested in questionable research practices and their role in producing false and misleading results. Many scientists are prescribing open practices (e.g., open data, prospective registration) as a way to restore the credibility of academic research. But, what about the broader public significance of continued reliance on questionable research practices? What do lay people think about them? And, what happens when questionable research practices enter courtrooms and affect legal decisions? What can economists learn from this? This talk attempts to answer these questions.

As we follow a flipped classroom approach, please watch the pre-recorded video of the presentation here: https://vimeo.com/753809900
The live session will then focus on discussion. If you cannot make it but still want to comment or ask a question, please use the discussion of this session's page on the ReplicationWiki.

SHORT BIO
Jason Chin. I am a Lecturer at the School of Law at the University of Sydney, the former (2020-21) President of the Association for Interdisciplinary Meta-research and Open Science (AIMOS), and the inaugural registered reports editor for Forensic Science International: Synergy. I have a PhD in Social Psychology from the University of British Columbia and a JD from the University of Toronto. Prior to returning to academia, I practiced litigation at a large international law firm and was called to the bar in both New York and Ontario. Whenever feasible, I try to offer pragmatic solutions and guidance to the challenges faced by practicing lawyers. My research has been featured in the New York Times and Sydney Morning Herald.
