Study preregistration and Registered Reports

Registering a study’s hypothesis, design, methods and analysis plan prior to conducting the study increases the transparency of your research and can reduce biases and questionable research practices. This coffee lecture introduces the Open Science practice of preregistration, the motivation behind it and how to preregister work in a repository (without peer review) or a journal (with peer review).

After the introduction, a hands-on workshop is available to researchers who want to get started with preregistering their work. For this purpose, we will use a preregistration template on the Open Science Framework (OSF). There will be time to discuss your questions, concerns and any challenges you are currently facing.

You will receive the Zoom link after registering for the event.
