We must go further: redesign institutions, test causal interventions, and have national funders establish dedicated meta-research panels: an investment this field has long deserved. Miske et al. 👉 doi.org/10.1038/s41586-026-1… 📰doi.org/10.1038/d41586-026-0… @NatureNV @UnivdeCoimbra

Nature meta-research project puts claims in social-science papers. I'm interested in Econ and Psych so I focused on that: Econ had about the same rate of "not reproducible" analyses as Psych and a worse rate then Political Science. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
