Abstract
This mapping review synthesizes 16 Registered Replication Reports to examine their scope, methods, and scientific impact. Analyses reveal OECD-dominant lab participation, English-language data collection, male author overrepresentation, long timelines with large samples, low replication success, attenuated effects, and stable citation patterns, highlighting both challenges and the corrective value of RRRs.
