When dealing with failed replicability it is important not to conflate a poorly designed experiment with a poorly written methods section. Often there is tacit or socially negotiated knowledge required to properly replicate an experiment. This doesn't mean the science is bad, it means science is more social than some would like to admit. For some interesting reading on this check out Harry Collins's paper "The Seven Sexes: A Study in the Sociology of a Phenomenon, or the Replication of Experiments in Physics"[1] [1] http://soc.sagepub.com/content/9/2/205.short |
