What part are journals playing in advancing practices toward more transparent research?Īs long as traditional journal articles remain the currency of the field, they can incentivize practices that improve research transparency. Daniel Simons, editor of AMPPS and Professor of Psychology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, to share his thoughts on the role of journals in advancing open sciences practices, his experience implementing AMPPS’ rigorous standards, and his advice for researchers and editors on advancing a vision of increasingly transparent research in academia. AMPPS also encourages submission of Registered Reports, a publishing format that involves a two-step peer review process, with peer review occurring once before data collection, and once after data collection. ĪMPPS requires adherence to high transparency standards including the requirement that data, code, and materials for studies be posted to a trusted third-party repository for public access.
This is reflected in its TOP Factor rating, of 25 out of 29 possible points- a rating of how journal policies align with the Transparency and Openness Promotion Guidelines. AMPPS is innovative in a number of ways, including its attention to open science practices. The journal Advances in Methods and Practices in Psychological Science (AMPPS) publishes academic articles on scientific research methods across the psychological sciences.
