Peer review is a gift researchers give to the field, worth >$1B globally in 2020. Imagine if more of that generosity flowed straight back into the scholar-led journals that make research free to read and free to publish. Help build that future, become a diamond reviewer forrt.org/diamond-reviewer

What is next for our Replication Research journal? Together with members of the Replication Journal Federation and CODECHECK, we have submitted a proposal to @dfg.de that is currently under review. You can read it here: doi.org/10.5281/zeno... @r2journal.bsky.social #ReplicationResearch

Infographic showing four barriers to research replication paired with solutions. Barriers (grey boxes): lack of expertise, punishing research assessment guidelines, lack of resources for scholarly-led journals, and a culture of criticism. Solutions (green boxes): field-specific guidance via mentorship and workshops; recommendations and policy-briefs for academic societies; leveraging a journal network for shared infrastructure; and a nomination portal for constructive replication calls.

The Initial Editorial Assessment can catch broken URLs, missing disclosure of data transparency, inconsistent statistics, hallucinated references, missing author contributions and much more. We do much of this manually. For some checks, we use Metacheck and a complementary AI prompt.

Replication Research (R2) @r2journal.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

At R2, we take both quality assessment and transparency seriously. This is why we do not only publish peer review reports and reproducibility certificates for all articles but also conduct thorough initial checks. They are done by the EiC and an editorial assisstant before peer review.

Disciplinary scope: Research in linguistics, including all sub-fields.

Statement of commitment: Replication Research will automatically offer Stage 1 in-principle acceptance (IPA) to any Stage 1 RR within the journal’s disciplinary scope that receives IPA at PCI RR, and will accept without further peer review any Stage 2 RR that has been recommended by PCI RR, subject to the manuscript meeting the journal requirements concerning bias control and computational reproducibility.

Disciplinary scope: Replication studies across a range of physical, life, and social sciences, including digital humanities, experimental philosophy, geoscience, linguistics, management sciences, marketing, medicine, mental health, metascience, neuroimaging, neuroscience, political science, psychology, and qualitative and quantitative research methods. Studies can be robustness reproductions using the same data and code, recreate reproductions using the same data and new code, close replications using new data and the same method, or conceptual replications using new data and a different method.
