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. --- ![](cid:F4C2D2C5-B519-4948-ABD3-1A50E3911DB9@psy.lmu.de "PastedImage.png") http://www.osc.lmu.de/ Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/lmu_osc Join our email newsletter: https://lists.lrz.de/mailman/listinfo/lmu-osc [Unsubscribe](https://lists.lrz.de/mailman/listinfo/lmu-osc) from the newsletter.
