Let's break it down:
-If the study has been conducted by multiple others and they get different results, it might be a sign that something went wrong in the experiment, and the data is unreliable. For example, if everybody else timed an event and got the same exact time except for the fact that you got a different time, you may start to suspect that you had done something wrong and the data was unusable.
Hope this helped! :)
