Refer to the passage given above. The author attributes the replication crisis primarily to:
1.
rational responses to misaligned incentives, rather than to widespread fraud.
2.
deliberate fabrication of results by a dishonest minority of researchers.
3.
the incompetence of peer reviewers at leading journals.
4.
chronic underfunding of laboratory equipment and facilities.
Correct Answer: rational responses to misaligned incentives, rather than to widespread fraud.
The passage states, "This asymmetry does not require fraud to do its damage. It needs only thousands of rational scientists responding to incentives." Fraud (b) is explicitly ruled out as the primary cause.
