摘要

本文回顾了 2010 年至 2020 年间《美国经济评论》上以评论形式发表的复制论文的影响。我们研究了它们的引用情况以及对原版论文（OPs）后续引用的影响。结果表明，评论几乎没有被引用，也不会影响原论文的引用--即使评论诊断出了实质性问题。此外，我们还对复制者和作者进行了一项意见调查，发现他们往往对 OP 的贡献是否能持续下去没有共识。我们的结论是，经济学文献不会自我纠正，经济学中的稳健性和可复制性很难界定。

Is economics self‐correcting? Replications in the American Economic Review

This paper reviews the impact of replications published as comments in the American Economic Review between 2010 and 2020. We examine their citations and influence on the original papers' (OPs) subsequent citations. Our results show that comments are barely cited, and they do not affect the OP's citations—even if the comment diagnoses substantive problems. Furthermore, we conduct an opinion survey among replicators and authors and find that there often is no consensus on whether the OP's contribution sustains. We conclude that the economics literature does not self‐correct, and that robustness and replicability are hard to define in economics.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
