The process of #preregistering my #dissertation is forcing me to think about #studydesign more than I normally have to. My field, #languagevaration in #sociolinguistics, leans very heavily on #crosssectional #observational studies, which makes sense seeing as we're not looking at things like medical conditions that may or may not be present. However, I couldn't even remember the name of this study design in order to describe it for the #preregistration as a result.

Two interesting papers on different ways consolidating hypotheses and analyses:

One are different types of Registration (incl. #RegisteredReports), the other is conducting analyses with key data being masked.

Blinding analyses:

Blinding vs. #Registration:
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/25152459221128319

It seems that combining this to "report writing based on masked data" could be a viable combination.

Looking for some advice on how to model toxicity scales for an observational study.
