Correcting the past: failures to replicate ψ.

Published: December 2012

Across 7 experiments (N = 3,289), we replicate the procedure of Experiments 8 and 9 from Bem (2011), which had originally demonstrated retroactive facilitation of recall. We failed to replicate that finding. We further conduct a meta-analysis of all replication attempts of these experiments and find that the average effect size (d = 0.04) is no different from 0. We discuss some reasons for differences between the results in this article and those presented in Bem (2011).

Article Synopsis
  • - Excessive weight, linked to genetic and environmental factors, is associated with health issues like cardiovascular diseases and type-2 diabetes, and the study focuses on NOTCH1's role in metabolism and adipogenesis.
  • - The research analyzed participants' genetic data from a cohort in São Paulo, identifying specific NOTCH1 SNPs with the minor allelic frequency and making associations between these SNPs and excessive weight.
  • - Notably, SNP rs9411207 was linked to a higher risk of obesity, with certain genotypes being more prevalent in overweight individuals, suggesting these genetic variations could influence fat metabolism and warrant further investigation in larger populations for potential management strategies.

The low reproducibility rate in social sciences has produced hesitation among researchers in accepting published findings at their face value. Despite the advent of initiatives to increase transparency in research reporting, the field is still lacking tools to verify the credibility of research reports. In the present paper, we describe methodologies that let researchers craft highly credible research and allow their peers to verify this credibility.

Aiming to have a qualitative increase in health spaces and provide a positive experience for its users, this article presents the meanings of well-being related to the environment, attributed by users of therapeutic environments with complementary and integrative practices (CIPs). One of the objectives of the qualitative research was to "Identify the meaning of well-being and the stimuli that influence it in CIP environments". An environmental assessment was carried out in three case studies in 2017, using multiple methods, of which interviews - with therapists, patients and coordinators from institutions - and systematic observations best contributed to the results presented here.

Ants, an ecologically successful and numerically dominant group of animals, play key ecological roles as soil engineers, predators, nutrient recyclers, and regulators of plant growth and reproduction in most terrestrial ecosystems. Further, ants are widely used as bioindicators of the ecological impact of land use. We gathered information of ant species in the Atlantic Forest of South America.
