Part 2/6:
Researchers are often under tremendous pressure to deliver results that are not only satisfactory but also groundbreaking. In this particular case, the individual was tasked with replicating difficult experiments without a clear guideline on how previous successes were achieved. The complexity and uniqueness of these experiments added to the burden, as results were not guaranteed. It is common for experiments to yield inconsistent results; thus, the advent of failure can lead to frustration on both the researcher’s part and the stakeholders involved.
