Thrilled that our Stage 2 RR is now recommended by @pci-regreports.bsky.social!✨ We examined the restriction of researcher degrees of freedom in #preregistrations through the PRP-QUANT Template & found higher restrictiveness compared to a less detailed template! Link: doi.org/10.24072/pci...

It was great being back in Cologne for my #preregistration workshop! I loved a discussion the students and I had on "how can the publication system be so flawed? why do journals have all the power!?" and them being super enthusiastic about #OpenScience!

In a new preprint led by @abitter.bsky.social we tested whether open data is useful for reproducibility and usage based on automated and human assessment of data FAIRness. The short answer is: in the majority of cases not really. For more information 👇
How FAIR is shared data in psychology?

We analyzed 11,384 datasets (2013–2024): They're findable, but less reusable!

What relates most to differences in FAIRness? #Repository choice.

Please help us, #MetaScience community!

It's time to decide on a forever name for papercheck (scienceverse.github.io/papercheck/). We don't want it to be confused with papercheck.ai, and we plan to check other research artifacts like repo contents, data, code, and prereg. Any suggestions?
Check Scientific Papers for Best Practices
A modular, extendable system for automatically checking scientific papers for best practices using text search, R code, and/or (optional) LLM queries.

Incentives are not only an important topic when talking about the scientific incentive structure - it's also important to consider and report participant incentives. Interesting talk by Alessandro van den Berg at the PMGS #MetaResearch Symposium. #OpenScience
