    Dear Colleagues, I am the Series Editor of Emerald Publisher’s Replicability Crisis in Social Science Research series. In this series we plan to publish various area focused books. During 2018, my personal aim is to bring out the following books: (a) Replicability Crisis in Management Research; (b) Replicability Crisis in Marketing Research; (c) Replicability Crisis in Tourism Research; and, (d) Replicability Crisis in Psychology. If you are interested in methodology related issues, kindly consider contributing a chapter in one of these books. Please feel free to discuss with me your ideas. The details of the book series is given below: Overview Social sciences are facing serious replicability crisis and have become targets of daily attacks. There is an increasing distrust among practitioners, in the scientific findings being churned out by social science researchers. However, the broader community of social science researchers has largely shied away from facing the criticism than addressing it in a manner befitting scholarly practitioners. So far, attempts to address irreproducibility of scientific findings have been isolated and largely been concentrated around particular disciplinary areas such as psychology and sociology. However, a significant portion of social research projects that touch upon issues affecting real lives are interdisciplinary; also, the root causes of the replicability crisis are not hard coupled to disciplines. Challenging irreproducibility in a piecemeal manner is ineffective. It must also be noted that mainstream challenges to irreproducibility have turned into mockery, offering no pathways to redemption. In this background, the mission of this book series is to provide a scholarly platform for critical discussion about the replicability crisis that has begun to unsettle confidence in the value of social science research. Given the diversity of voices it must accommodate into the debate, we welcome manuscripts that examines replicability crisis from a diversity of ontological, epistemological, and methodological perspectives. Representative Sample of Topics Replicability in psychological science: A crisis of confidence? Is the replicability crisis overblown? Arguments examined Costs of irreplicability for stakeholders: An analysis Instability of human behavior and implications The alleged crisis and the illusion of exact replication Meta-analytical solutions for replicability The connection between varying treatment effects and the crisis of unreplicable research From social data mining to forecasting socio-economic crises The irrelevance of “significance” in organizational research Reclaiming qualitative research for wider relevance Active citation: A precondition for replicable qualitative research Determinants of scientific progress: The case of research on the risky shift Audience What need does the book series fulfill? Discussions regarding the value of research for anyone other than the actual participants of a study have been limited because it is assumed that research findings have validity beyond the samples and bound contexts. There have been minority voices questioning the assumptions of generalizability and replicability; of late, this issue has begun to boil into larger controversies and the mainstream media has taken up it. Yet, it is unfortunate that a scholarly platform for reflecting upon the replicability crisis does not exist. The proposed book series identifies this void and aims to fill the vacuum. Who is the primary market? Scholars in all social science research areas, especially the more established researchers. Who makes up the secondary market? Public policy makers; grant funding agencies; mainstream media Contact Information Babu P George Book Series Editor, Replicability Crisis in Social Science Research Fort Hays State University, USA Email: bpgeorge@fhsu.edu
