Ah it looks like somebody has been ideologically editing Wikipedia. Shocker. Here [1] is an archive from a year or so ago, referencing/citing the 23% for the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. I should probably look to finding a more stable and reliable source for information/citations than Wiki.

Actually that's my bad. The current article still says fundamentally the same thing it's just formatted slightly differently:

> Studies in the field of cognitive psychology had a higher replication rate (50%) than studies in the field of social psychology (25%).

I somehow overlooked that part of your comment. The 23% figure is still present but it refers to a specific journal so I didn't take it into account.
