Answer: The expanding conviction that many scientific research findings cannot be replicated and are therefore likely to be inaccurate.

Explanation: Numerous studies have demonstrated that many attempts to duplicate findings in published research fail, either because the replication studies discovered an effect that was not present in the earlier study or because they failed to identify the effect that was claimed in the previous study.
