Abstract: Research reproducibility is defined as obtaining similar results using the same data and code as the original study. This simple, yet fundamental, property remains surprisingly difficult to validate in practice in many scientific fields, including economics. To check research reproducibility, third-party verifiers can complement the work done by journals' internal teams. Third-party verifiers can also be used by individual researchers seeking a pre-submission reproducibility certification to signal the reproducible nature of their research. Using the example of the cascad certification agency, which I co-founded in 2019, I discuss the functioning, utility, comparative advantages, and challenges of third-party verification services.
