One striking result: only 34% of reanalyses landed within a narrow tolerance of the original effect size (±0.05 Cohen’s d). With a wider tolerance (±0.20), that rose to 57%. Reanalysis effect sizes also tended to be smaller than the originals.

504 reanalyses by 457 independent reanalysts, with at least 5 reanalyses per claim. The core question was simple: how much do our findings depend on analysts’ choices rather than the data alone?
Even though my contribution was small, I’m happy to see this study published—and to have 493 new co-authors. As a part of the SCORE project, we reanalyzed 100 claims from 100 papers: 74% reached the same conclusion, 24% were null/inconclusive, and 2% went the other way.
