>However it's important to pick a sample that doesn't inherently bias the effect that is being measured. This has to apply to both the original and the replication. All this shows is that psychology is less useful that people thing because any data is likely only applicable to the given group. Even if we say the studies are still good, this means that psychology loses the ability to be generalized to others groups beyond the one studied. And given how often psychology has that done to it, we must question every finding all the more.
