If we have the authors' data, surely we can get the same results?! Challenges in the reproducibility of linguistics studies | Dr.'in Elen Le Foll, Ali Yildiz, Marie Klünter 11.02.2026, 2 pm
speaker Dr.'in Elen Le Foll | Romanistik / DCH, Ali Yildiz | Institut für Linguistik, Marie Klünter | Romanistik
content While data sharing undoubtedly helps to improve the reproducibility of published research, this session shows that it is far from a silver bullet. We report on our attempts to reproduce the results of recent quantitative linguistics publications using the authors' original data. We report on challenges that highlight recurring reproducibility issues, setting the stage for a discussion on the (lack of) incentives, recurring problems, and potential solutions for improving the reproducibility of quantitative research in the humanities and social sciences. This session is organised in collaboration with ReproducibiliTea in the HumaniTeas (sign up to the mailing list to find out more).
