Statistical (non)Significance ≠ (un)Successful Replication: The Importance of the Smallest Effect Size of Interest

A commentary on the target paper “Replication value as a function of citation impact and sample size” (https://osf.io/preprints/metaarxiv/knjea) entitled “Statistical (non)Significance ≠ (un)Successful Replication: The Importance of the Smallest Effect Size of Interest”. In this commentary, we argue that the smallest effect size of interest (or minimally meaningful effect size) should be considered when examining the value of replication studies because the determination of whether a replication is successful depends on it.
