Repeating an experiment following the exact same procedures and using the exact same data and tooling should always give the same results. This is referred to as replicability, a key principle within the scientific research community. To support replicability in a clinical context, recording and reporting …

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) indicate that power training has the ability to improve muscle power and physical performance in older adults. However, power training definitions are broad and previously-established criteria are vague, making the validity and replicability of power training interventions …

This open science checklist is for researchers, trainees and students to assist them in implementing open science in their research activities.
