To the idea of replicating the experiment, replicating it as closely as possible is exactly what the statistical methods assume. The other concept you're speaking to seems more like establishing causation or just generally understanding when the observed effects do or do not result. That seems better as a separate study altogether.
- stdbrouw 12y agoYou're right. I was referring specifically to the fact that in this replication study, they've actually bunched together many different studies into a single questionnaire that tests them all. So it's not a straight-up replication, but then, in the social sciences replications almost never are.
