Replicability of research in physical activity sciences

Abstract

Reproducibility is a fundamental principle of scientific progress1. Science progresses as new hypotheses are refined, based on existing findings. In that sense, the reproducibility plays a relevant role
among researchers and published research, since when acting with transparency the protocols applied must lead to reproducing similar results in various conditions, although it is currently clear that many researchers are not transparent with their data, and do not even report the geographical location, region or region where the investigation was conducted.
