Many-analysts religion project: reflection and conclusion

Abstract

In the main article on the Many-Analysts Religion Project (MARP) the results of the 120 analysis teams were summarized by taking each team's reported effect size and subjective assessment of the relation between religiosity and well-being, and the moderating role of cultural norms on this relation. Here, we discuss the findings in the main manuscript and aim to address the points raised in the 17 commentaries written by various participating analysts. That is, we first zoom in and address the issue of theoretical specificity. We will then zoom out and discuss to what extent the MARP results are robust and can be generalized. Subsequently, we discuss some methodological concerns, mostly related to the structure of the data. Finally, we will reflect on our experience of organizing a many-analysts project and highlight some lessons learned.
