This Registered Report collaborative template aims to address the growing prevalence of Registered Reports. Registered Reports (http://cos.io/rr) are a new publication process now adopted by hundreds of journals across the sciences, in which journal …
We appreciate the initiative to seek for ways to improve academic assessment by broadening the range of relevant research contributions and by considering a candidate’s scientific rigor. Evaluating a candidate's ability to contribute to science is a …
This editorial announces the decision of the Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology (CJEP) to offer Open Science Framework (OSF) Badges. The Centre for Open Science provides tools to facilitate open science practices. These include the OSF …
Academic institutions in Europe (e.g. universities, research funding institutions, academies) are
increasingly committing themselves to ‘open science’ principles (see e.g. http://openscienceasap.
org/open-science/). Those principles are increasingly …
All of us involved in the mind and brain sciences, in whatever
capacity, are increasingly aware of the importance of ensuring
the credibility of our research. This credibility—which for experimental work turns on its reliability—is particularly …
Conservation science is a multidisciplinary and collaborative discipline. This journal's policy is to encourage transparent and open practices in science, including sharing of data, code, and survey instruments. Such practices are especially …
The scientific endeavor is one in which the capacity to replicatefindings is a foundational tenant. It is unfortunate that therehave been a number of highly publicized cases over the pastdecade of scientists who have not practiced science with …
Many scientific fields are facing a reproducibility crisis, revealed where replication fails to reproduce findings from previous work. This irreproducibility leads to the promulgation of inappropriate evidence.
One justification for preregistering research hypotheses, methods, and analyses is that it
improves the transparent evaluation of the severity of hypothesis tests. In this article, I
consider two cases in which preregistration does not improve this …
Clinical trials are routinely preregistered. In psychology and the social sciences, however, only a small percentage of studies are preregistered, and those preregistrations often contain ambiguities. As advocates strive for broader uptake and …
