Small sample sizes reduce the replicability of task-based fMRI studies by Turner, Benjamin O., Paul, Erick J., Miller, Michael B., Barbey, Aron K.

“…Using large independent samples across eleven tasks, we demonstrate the impact of sample size on replicability, assessed at different levels of analysis relevant to fMRI researchers. We find that the degree of replicability for typical sample sizes is modest and that sample sizes much larger than typical (e.g., N = 100) produce results that fall well short of perfectly replicable. …”
