"The results that support the claim are replicable by other scientists who follow the same procedures."

Explanation: Reproducibility—independent researchers obtaining the same results using the same methods—is a core criterion for a valid scientific claim. Institutional backing, the number of supporters, or using any method do not by themselves make a claim scientifically valid.
