Registration Submission Redesign
To improve quality and transparency What is it? of research Why should I do it? Some funders require preregistration of studies How do I do it? Before data collection or before Preregistration: analysis of data Which form do I choose? User Confusion Create an immutable, time stamped version of research design, hypothesis and pre-analysis plan How do I fill out this form? OSF offers 8 registration templates, Are there any examples to 4 for preregistration help me? IMPROVE THIS! Did I do it?
