Striking a balance - How to make preregistration more accessible and at the same time reproducible
⚖️

That's what this group at the Open Science Retreat is aiming to achieve. Looking forward to their output!

Imagine you preregistered study with tests A and B for a directed hypothesis H, but did not specify one-tailed or two-tailed testing. Test A is in the predicted direction, but p = between .05 and .09. Test B is in the non-predicted direction, but p < .05. How do you report results?

Preregistering your research is a great way to boost transparency and rigor. But which template is right for your study?

Join us on March 27 at 11 AM ET for a webinar on choosing the right preregistration template! We’ll explore OSF’s templates for different study types—including experiments, systematic reviews, qualitative methods, and more.

PS: I'm sympathetic to those short on time or caught up in job changes. But those pointing to #nullresults didn't understand the point of #preregistration. Those whose submissions were rejected by journals could still share the results as #preprints.

🌟 We have launched our preregistration platform PreReg! 🌟 PreReg guides researchers through all the steps of pre-registration and now offers an even clearer structure. #Preregistration #OpenScience #Psychology leibniz-psychology.org/en/news/deta...

I use the #OSF #preregistration tool extensively, but I don't find the online form suitable for drafting. Online collaboration, commenting, track changes, and version history is not possible. I've had bad experiences with simultaneous editing and the wrong user finalizing preregs as administrator.

In our lab we've transferred the online form to a Word file that we use an online file to plan the preregistration before copying it into the OSF form. It's available here in case it could be useful for others: osf.io/ufzra #OpenScience

For people a little distant from the topic, a decent description of #preregistration and #registration.

The criticisms mostly seem of the "not all injuries are prevented by seatbelts and I might get trapped" flavor.

In reality the main problem may be that researchers don't live 36-hour days, try though they generally do. Adding work that seems peripheral in a context of personal honesty is a hard choice.

That and who pays for the infrastructure, over decades.

A morass of conflicted objectives, careless curation. Human nature with all of its sublime and ridiculous features.

Ideally Graham's article would have touched on #preregistration, #registration. With these on hand there would be much less murk and much more light. It's a missed object lesson.

Parenthetically I happen to look at a lot of scientific reports each week, for reasons. There is a steady drumbeat of author-instigated retractions. Good to bear that in mind.

Do you know your #HorizonEU requirements? (7/11) TRUE or FALSE - "In the grant proposal, not addressing the other recommended #OpenScience practices (e.g. #CitizenScience, #preregistration) will have a negative impact on your score" ??

#openscience question: Does anyone have a good example of a #preregistration for exploratory research? I am specifically looking for one based on estimation instead of hypothesis testing (e.g., no power analysis).

And there is #ISOQOL pushing the #preregistration methodology maybe a bit too far 🤭
