Replication code availability over time and across fields: Evidence from the German Socio-Economic Panel

Abstract Providing replication code is an inexpensive way to facilitate reproducibility. However, little is known about the extent of replication code provision.

We find that only ...

The effect of unemployment on care provision

With the help of multi-group confirmatory analyses and ...
