I’m perplexed that someone would you go to the trouble to look at a complex issue such as replication and then ignore, well, replication. Each replicability score for each journal for each year is a replication, and one should average the scores across years rather than just usiing 2018 data before presenting the rankings! If we treat years as the unit of analysis, the average corrected item total correlation for one year’s ratings with the total set of ratings (average across years) is r = .59. So using the average would be fairer and a lot more informative.
You can average if you want to know performance over a 9-year time span. However, this would ignore trends in the data like the improvement in Psychological Science from 2010 to 2018. Of course, results for a specific year are noisier and we wouldn’t place to much stock on a specific rank in a specific year, but that is how rankings (or stock prices for that matter) work.
would be good to see citation rating and wonload next to repliccability
