Some fields need 3-5 sigmas to even start taking something seriously, some fields have 50% or worse replication rates, and some fields don't even have anything to replicate. The very few parts of the social sciences that are consistent and replicable show e.g. that IQ is strongly correlated with life outcomes and highly heritable, that even after you correct for everything imaginable blacks < hispanics < whites < asians, and other taboo findings.
