On Normativity and Epistemic Intuitions: Failure of Replication

Abstract: (2001) and its implications for philosophical methodology in general and epistemology in specific. Despite the debates, however, to our knowledge, there has not been a replication attempt of the experiments of the original paper. We collected data from four different sources (two on-line and two in-person) to replicate the experiments. Despite several different data sets and in various cases larger sample sizes and hence greater power to detect differences, we failed to detect significant differences between t… Show more

“…A lot of later empirical work has focused on investigating actual gender differences in moral decision-making and found differing results. While some found a statistically significant difference in moral decision-making between women and men [36], others did not [37]. A more recent meta-analysis conducted on 470 experimental studies indicated that cheating and dishonest behavior is more prevalent in men than in women [38].…”

“…12 While attempting to replicate the study of (Weinberg et al 2001) that found evidence of variation among ethnic groups with respect to their intuitions concerning Gettier counterexamples to accounts of knowledge as justified true belief, Jennifer Nagel, Valerie San Juan and Raymond Mar found no evidence of variation in intuition by gender (Nagel et al 2013). With respect to ethnicity, Nagel et al's study is one of three recent studies that fail to replicate the results of Weinberg et al (see also Kim and Yuan 2015;Seyedsayamdost 2015). importance to place on this real but small difference.…”

“…Although the reproducibility of the papers cited above on the unreliability of intuitions is under question (Adleberg, Thompson, and Nahmias ; Kim and Yuan ; Seyedsayamdost ), this line of investigation has continued with other variables. Besides demographic factors, other studies have cast doubt on the reliability of intuitions in different ways.…”
