This paper investigates a general concept of reproducibility with regard to its application on experiments with homeopathic potencies.
The experimental situation for distinguishing a homeopathic potency and its solvent is described in a formal way. This allows the application of the weak law of large numbers. Experimental arrangements are described in a formal way. This allows conclusions to be drawn about the possible existence of nonlocal influences on an experiment.
From a pragmatic as well as from a global point of view, a general concept of reproducibility supports decisions whether or not effects in experiments with homeopathic potencies do exist.
本文探讨了可重复性的一般概念及其在顺势疗法药力实验中的应用。
以形式化的方式描述了区分顺势疗法药力及其溶剂的实验情况。这使得大数弱定律得以应用。实验安排也以形式化的方式进行了描述。这有助于就实验中可能存在的非局部影响得出结论。
从实用主义以及全局的角度来看，可重复性的一般概念有助于决定顺势疗法药力实验中是否确实存在效应。
