How often are multiverse analyses implemented, not just cited/discussed? How are they implemented? 🧵 New preprint on the uptake and implementation of multiverse-style analyses 👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Uptake and Implementation of Multiverse-style Analyses Across 613 Studies

Empirical conclusions can depend on the many individual choices researchers make when analyzing data. Multiverse-style analyses address this by computing results across a set of specifications rather ...
