Dear LMU OSC list,

an international task force of multiple academic societies and 
stakeholders in psychological science developed the "**Preregistration 
Standards for Quantitative Psychology**". They are presented on a launch 
event on **October 27**; this probably is also of interest for other 
empirical disciplines!

Details see below.

Best,
Felix

> ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
> Dr. Simine Vazire is a Professor at the Melbourne School of 
> Psychological Sciences at the University of Melbourne. Her research 
> examines individual and institutional practices and norms in science, 
> and the degree to which these norms encourage or impede 
> self-correction and credibility. She is Editor in Chief of Collabra: 
> Psychology and has served as an editor at several other journals. She 
> is a board member of the Public Library Of Science and the Berkeley 
> Institute for Transparency in the Social Sciences, was a member of the 
> US National Academy of Science study committee on replicability and 
> reproducibility, and co-founded the Society for the Improvement of 
> Psychological Science (SIPS).
>
> Dr. Eric-Jan (“EJ”) Wagenmakers is a mathematical psychologist and 
> a dedicated (some have said &quot;marxist&quot;) Bayesian. He 
> works at the Psychological Methods Unit of the University of Amsterdam 
> where he heads a lab that develops the JASP open-source software 
> program for statistical analyses. Wagenmakers is also a strong 
> advocate of Open Science and the preregistration of analysis plans.
>
>
> PREREGISTRATION TASK FORCE
> The current panel comprises members of multiple international 
> psychological societies who have been collaborating in the past year, 
> developing an adaptable preregistration template for widespread 
> adoption.

> ABOUT PREREGISTRATION
> Preregistration allows researchers to specify and share the details of 
> their research in a public registry before actually carrying out the 
> research. As such, preregistration serves multiple important purposes: 
> e.g., (a) ensuring that research teams share a clear understanding of 
> their research goals and processes, (b) separating the confirmatory 
> aspects of the research from the exploratory aspects, (c) allowing for 
> input from colleagues online prior to conducting the study, and (d) 
> allowing journal editors to accept researchers’ papers 
> conditionally, regardless of the outcomes themselves.
