[off-topic: not even a gratuitous org reference. My only excuse is the
general interest of list members on reproducible research (org-babel!
OK, that's the requisite gratuitous reference: I feel better now :-) )]
538.com has published a couple of interesting articles on some poli-sci
research:
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/how-two-grad-students-uncovered-michael-lacour-fraud-and-a-way-to-change-opinions-on-transgender-rights/#ss-1
and
http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/as-a-major-retraction-shows-were-all-vulnerable-to-faked-data/
N.B. the reference to the "open data" policies of AJPS - that seems to
be clearly the future direction of research (and, imo, it's about time).

Thanks Nick, much appreciated. Long live org-babel!
All the best,

Ironically, the results "found" in the retreated paper by LaCour & Green
(2014) have been recently replicated by Broockman & Kalla (2016):

Partly replicated, according to the above links. Amazing effect of
canvassing against prejudice, yes; dependence on canvasser belonging to
victimized group, no.
Anyway, very interesting stuff that I'd have missed if not for the posts
here, OT or not. Thanks!
Yours,
Christian
