## Definition

describing a result or a process that can be done again and again to get the same answer. Scientists use this to check if their experiments are reliable.

For teachers: capable of being produced or achieved again under the same conditions. Often used in scientific contexts to describe data or results that can be verified by independent researchers.

## Examples

- The scientist wants to see if the results are reproducible.
- For a study to be considered valid, other researchers must be able to perform the same experiment and get reproducible results.
- The peer review process is designed to ensure that the findings of a study are not only accurate but also reproducible, allowing the scientific community to build upon the original data with confidence.
