Replication is the research practice of repeating a prior study or experiment — using the same methods, or systematically modified ones — to verify, confirm, extend, or challenge its findings. It operates through structured protocols (pre-registration, shared materials, open data) and is sustained by publication norms, peer evaluation, and the institutional reward structure of science. A replication test whether a result is stable across independent executions, separating genuine effects from noise or contextual artifacts. [formal: replicatio | substrate: behavior | horizon: a life | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.01]
