AP Psychology
Unit 3 – Sensation and Perception
Topic 3.1
Why is replicability important when using research studies as evidence in an argument within psychology?
Replication is unimportant; once a study finds a result, it is considered permanent fact regardless of future findings.
Results of non-replicable studies automatically disqualify them as valid evidence in psychological arguments.
Replicability ensures that results are reliable and not due to chance or specific circumstances of one study.
Replicability allows researchers to publish more papers on the same topic.
