The lack of pure replication studies is frustrating, but I am compelled to mention that in many cases the experimental effect of the prior study often ends up becoming the baseline condition of the next study. IF the earlier experimental effect fails to replicate as baseline condition, then it isn't a good baseline in the new research, and thus fails to replicate, and thus the experiment is discontinued.
