Repeatability vs. reproducibility, which should you use? Repeatability and reproducibility are two ways that scientists and engineers measure the precision of their experiments and measuring tools.

A recent study provides evidence that some results of behavioral experiments with insects cannot be fully reproduced. So far, possible reproducibility problems have been little discussed in this ...

Reproducibility refers to the consistency of measurements. It is the extent to which a tool can produce the same result when used repeatedly under the same circumstances. Reproducibility is used ...

The retraction of a high-profile paper 1 that tested ways to improve the soundness of scientific studies has highlighted the challenges of such ‘reproducibility’ research. The retracted paper’s ...
