“…However, the effects of such interventions have not always been replicated 57 . It seems reasonable to think of something in between individual psychotherapy-based interventions and brief one-time interventions (see 55,56 ).…”

In this paper we list ten fairly undisputed claims about Mathematics Anxiety (MA) and propose where MA research should focus on. The areas future MA research should focus on comprise (a) theoretical clarifications on what MA is, and what constitutes its opposite pole, (b) construct validity – specifically relations between self-descriptive, (neuro)physiological and cognitive measures, (c) discrepancy between state and trait MA and its theoretical and practical consequences, (d) prevalence of MA and call for establishing external criteria for estimating prevalence and proposal of such criteria, (e) exploring role of MA in different groups, e.g., highly anxious and high match performing individuals, (f) classroom applications of MA knowledge, (g) effects of MA outside educational settings, (h) consequences of MA on mental health and well-being.

“…We are not aware of any such comprehensive initiative in the field of numerical and mathematical cognition. Even though there were numerous papers that aimed to replicate earlier findings (e.g., Colling et al, 2020), and gladly, some of them have been published in JNC (e.g., Ganley et al, 2021), we hope that this Special Issue will foster replication efforts in our field.…”

When we proposed this Special Issue to John Towse, Journal of Numerical Cognition (JNC) Editor-in-Chief back in May 2019, and first spread the news via Twitter and during the second Mathematical Cognition and Learning Society (MCLS) meeting in Ottawa, the world was different. It was a very long time before we had heard of COVID-19. The MCLS was enjoying a fantastic in-person meeting and we were all looking forward to MCLS 2020.As guest editors we had multiple ideas on how to make the best out of the Special Issue when it comes to adoption of Open Science practices, methodological rigor, and using Open Science infrastructure to streamline the process. We were delighted to see so much enthusiasm, encouragement, and support from colleagues, when they heard about the initiative. It was also great to see that we received multiple pre-submission abstracts. Even though the world has changed a lot since then, it has been challenging to everyone involved, and our own roads towards this moment have sometimes been bumpy, we are here, extremely happy, and proud to present the Special Issue on Direct and Conceptual Replication in Numerical Cognition. It comprises 12 replication papers and three commentaries by authors of replicated papers. The contributions are covering most of areas of numerical and mathematical cognition spanning from hard-core basic cognitive effects through developmental studies and interventions (cf. Figure 1 and Table 1). We are even more delighted that finally all our ideas (e.g., data and material sharing, Open Review Reports) on how to get the most out of the Special Issue found their way. At the same time, we are glad to see that since we proposed the special issue, the JNC evolved. For instance, by adopting the Open Science badges it gives even more visible credit for following these practices than it did before. It seems that Open Science including replication attempts is going to be more established and valued in our field.
