Estimating the reproducibility of psychological science

This widely reported study, published by the top journal Science and conducted by a 270-strong team of researchers working across many sites internationally, found that a significant number of research findings in psychology could not be replicated (so as to achieve statistical significance) on a retest.

What is not clear is how these results compare with results found in other research areas.
