Meta-science - how to improve science using science

Presentation (in English language) for the PSSOH 2024 plenary lecture on "Meta-science - how to improve science using science" delivered by Ljiljana B. Lazarević. The lecture was delivered in Serbian language and recorded. Video of the presentation, together with the Q&A session is available at https://youtu.be/3n1is9bR7c0. Announcement / najava (English language / engleski jezik): Across scientific fields, evidence of low reproducibility of scientific findings accumulated. These concerns increased the need to develop and improve the field of meta-science - a discipline investigating scientific processes, methods, and interventions aimed at improving science. In this talk, I will present the current state of affairs in the meta-research, focusing on the reproducibility of scientific findings, and changes that were made on the individual, structural and community level aimed to decrease the credibility crisis. Najava / announcement (srpski jezik / Serbian Language): U svim naučnim oblastima prikupljeni su dokazi o niskom stepenu ponovljivosti naučnih otkrića. Iz tog razloga je povećan interes za razvojem i unapređenjem polja meta-nauke – discipline koja istražuje naučne procese, metode i intervencije u cilju unapređenja nauke. U ovom plenarnom predavanju predstaviću trenutno stanje u metaistraživanju, fokusirajući se na ponovljivost naučnih otkrića, i promene koje su napravljene na individualnom, strukturnom i nivou zajednice u cilju smanjenja krize naučnog kredibiliteta.
