Extract

The public discussion over replication has been ongoing among political scientists for approximately three years. I welcome PS and the American Political Science Association to this debate. The American Journal of Political Science (AJPS) has operated with a replication policy since January 1, 1994. The first part of this essay reflects my views on replication; the second, my experiences as one of the first editors to adopt the policy.
