In the context of evaluating theories in psychology, conceptual replication means doing a study with different methods or different types of samples.

Conceptual replication means that scientists retest the same research hypotheses but use different methodologies or samples to see if the results agree. Different methods include different manipulation of variables, the different variable measuring, or different study designs. Conceptual replication is crucial in science. Research results that can be repeated using conceptual replication are more valid than those that cannot.
