The trend in economics is to require authors to provide their code and data. The journal I edit checks many of the replication packages to confirm that they actually produce the results in the paper. Some papers have been rejected after completing the peer review process and being conditionally accepted.
- joshdavham 2y agoTo confirm, is the code and data also made available to the readers, not just the editors?
- bachmeier 2y agoLate to respond, but it has to be made available to the public. Here's an example for a paper selected at random: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0140988324006625#s0135 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S014098832... (I wasn't involved with that paper and don't know if it was audited, but that's how it's done.)
