This chapter reviews a broad emerging literature on research transparency and reproducibility. This recent literature finds that problems with publication bias, specification searching, and an inability to reproduce empirical findings create clear deviations from the scientific pillars of openness and transparency of research. These failings can also result in incorrect inferences.
