Replication revisited: Introduction to the special section on replication in business research

摘要

This JBR Special Issue on Replication in Business Research includes seven research studies along with two invited comments on paper and two invited responses. The articles cover both a variety of replication or meta-analyses on research topics that have enough importance to justify such independent analysis as well as papers that speak to the role of replication in business research. The invited comments and responses show the importance of the dialog in the philosophy of science necessary in business writing and research.
