“Instead of focusing purely on replicability, we should strive to maximize transparency, rigor, and quality in all aspects of research.”
New review summarises the structural, procedural, and community changes following the replication crisis.

Preregistration:
Interesting new article in the Journal of Trial and Error proposes that we establish core preregistration criteria (i.e., a minimum amount of information required to consider a preregistration complete) and only award preregistered badges only to articles that meet those criteria.

Selfish Scientists
Researchers who thought of themselves as “scientists” saw themselves as less warm, fair, cooperative, likeable.
“The reminder of being a member of the scientific community that incentivizes individual gain might make researchers less willing to share their knowledge with peers.”

Rethinking Transparency and Rigor from a Qualitative Open Science Perspective
“The aim of this paper is to challenge the current quantitative-focused mainstream understanding of transparency and rigor within the open science movement and suggest additional considerations relating to these concepts from qualitative research paradigms.”

Motives for Not Sharing Data:
"We found no robust empirical evidence for the claim that not sharing research data for reanalysis is associated with consistency errors."

Replications Welcome!
“Replicators seem to believe that their work is seen as hostile (Nosek and Errington 2020; Nosek et al. 2022). In response, they are likely to see the outside world as a source of threats….However, the current results suggest that replicators possibly overestimate the risk of negative reactions to their work.”

A narrow definition of “research quality”
"[Preregistration, computational reproducibility of analyses, and replication studies] are all methodological procedures which have been developed from a narrow perspective of positivist epistemology, quantitative methodology, and a-priori confirmatory hypothesis testing.”

New discussion of preregistration argues for “three different categories of accepted papers:
(i) non-preregistered (confirmatory or exploratory) research,
(ii) preregistered, confirmatory research and
(iii) non-preregistered research marked explicitly as exploratory."
