I'd rather listen to an opinion of a good statistician, comparing psychology to other fields of science.
What Gilbert alleged implies the studies dip not provide correct steps to reproduce the conditions. This is even more damning - means the quality of studies is very low.
Alternatively, the whole field suffers from an extreme case of publication bias. This can be shown in number of publications that show no effect or disprove previous findings.
