In a paper by Allen et al.[ 3], resting state fMRI datasets from over 600 healthy controls ranging in age from 12 to 71 years were pooled for an extensive and foundational study of the effect of age and gender on resting state networks and their interconnectedness.
Another idea is for agencies to evaluate reproducibility of foundational studies as a criterion for awarding research funding [ 6] or to provide funds for replications of previous research as part of grants for novel work.
This foundational study provided evidence for the argument that intuitive cognitive biases found in early childhood persist in adulthood, even in well-educated populations interested enough in natural history to visit museums.
While most philosophers of physics who are skeptical about this approach remained largely silent, Wallace (2006, 2011) launched an eloquent attack on the predominance of AQFT for foundational studies about QFT.
