 Notes on the Fringes of the Replication Crisis in Management Science (Uwagi na marginesie kryzysu replikacji w naukach o zarzadzaniu)Przemyslaw Hensel ()
Problemy Zarzadzania, 2019, vol. 17, issue 84, 52-64 Abstract: The text aims to provide an introduction to the replicability and reproducibility issue in management science while at the same time highlighting possible problems associated with replication research. The study is based on the review of the current literature. Three central issues are highlighted: a) the scarcity of replication attempts is caused by the incentive structure faced by management scholars, b) since the majority of published replications (interstudy and intrastudy) are authored by the researchers who conducted the original study, their results can be affected by the same incentives that affect the results of the original study, c) the popularity of research findings seems to be unaffected by failed attempts to reproduce them. This introductory treatment of the issue suggests that further examination of the relationship between the authorship and replication results is warranted. Increasing the number of replication studies requires a significant change in the incentive structure to which scholars are exposed.
