Yes we do, and it doesn't matter. Data isn't relevant to the reproduction discussion. The reproducibility crisis is a crisis of methodology, not falsified or misinterpreted data. If I p-hack a result, then no amount of transparency is going to demonstrate that that's what I've done. The only standard of evidence for reproducibility is reproduction, and they are only using the "reproducibility crisis" as a diversionary tactic to increase the cost of doing science to an unacceptable level, at the same time as pulling EPA funding of science.
- refurb 8y agoGive me some examples of science where we make decisions and keep the raw data a secret. I can’t think of any except ones involving national security. Yes, the best way to prove reproducibility is to reproduce it, but that can’t always be done and at any rate is no excuse for keeping raw data a secret.
