Do you maybe have someone who would like to give a talk about this for our department to explain the core ideas behind this?

Would you argue to then mandate PreReg for all studies? Solving p-hacking and harking sounds like two pretty solid wins already, I guess.

Looks very interesting. Are there very different standards what a pre-reg has to contain, compared to psychology? The cited durations for completing a pre-reg seem very long to me, but maybe they are much more specific?

Oh how great! I will check it out next week:) thanks for all the week and the update here.
July 25, 2025 at 8:24 PM
If this is successful, is there a plan to do this more often:)?
July 16, 2025 at 12:50 PM
No worries, still sounds like a very nice initiative! I will spread it with some people I know might be interested.

Ah ok. I thought PCI was on „vacation“ now, so we submitted before the portal closes in July. Yes, it’s one of the projects where students otherwise beg friends/family to fill the study, so funding would definitely be nice😬

Maybe I missed it in the description. Can people apply who already submitted a snapshot for a given project?

Ah ok, I thought this was specifically aimed at early career researchers.

Sure thing, but „necessary“ is no objective measure here. There is usually a fine line between increasing efficiency and saving it into the ground, like the massive reduction of overheads in the US currently. So cost-saving is also an easily weaponizable construct.

If we believe that this sum can’t be changed, it also won’t. This is something that needs to be politically addressed. Yet, I’m skeptic that making us smaller and smaller will lead to anyone having more grant money in the end. Rather, it will be a political efficiency gain and taken elsewhere.

Absolutely, more money for research is always great, but we should value education enough to finance research and people who administer it, which are often former academics as well. And coaching people to become reviewers is also great, but not everyone has the capacity for this (eg care work).
July 2, 2025 at 12:23 PM
Ofc „the government“ doesn’t do it by themselves, as efficient organizations always do labor distribution. Yet, at least here, you won’t find a section in any academics contract, that the institution allocates X hours to do reviews. So it likely comes down to unpaid extra work.
July 2, 2025 at 7:43 AM
So, at least where I live, the biggest grant agency is a governmental institution. What would be the argument that I have to do work for the government in order to use a service which is already financed through my taxes? Doesn’t happen when getting a new passport either.

Thank you very much!

Congratulations!🎉 maybe this could come with a nice fee sponsored diamond OA journal?
June 29, 2025 at 1:22 PM
If there is one, maybe a short one, I would be interested as well!
June 28, 2025 at 10:07 AM
Also @giladfeldman.bsky.social gives very nice talks, explaining the system.
June 28, 2025 at 8:45 AM
Im not a representative of PCI, but maybe @pci-regreports.bsky.social would have some materials?
June 28, 2025 at 8:44 AM
Thanks for sharing this, especially the list of diamond OA journals, which are often hard to find.
Would be great if they could become partners with the Registered Report program by @pci-regreports.bsky.social

Thanks for the reply! Yes, I saw that it is tagged online:) but maybe this can be part of the pdf as well, to ease future projects, eg comparing RRs to „regular“ papers?
