Pre-Registration Skill
Purpose
Document study plans before data collection to ensure transparency and prevent questionable research practices.
Pre-Registration Components
1. Study Information
- Title, authors, institutions
- Funding sources
2. Hypotheses
- Primary hypothesis (pre-specified)
- Secondary hypotheses
- Exploratory questions
3. Design
- Study type (observational, experimental)
- Blinding (who, how)
- Randomization details
4. Sampling
- Sample size (with power analysis)
- Recruitment strategy
- Inclusion/exclusion criteria
- Stopping rules
5. Variables
- Independent variables (manipulation)
- Dependent variables (outcomes)
- Control variables
- Measurement instruments
6. Analysis Plan
- Primary statistical test
- Handling missing data
- Outlier treatment
- Multiple comparison corrections
7. Timeline
- Start date
- Data collection period
- Analysis completion
Platforms
- OSF (Open Science Framework): osf.io
- AsPredicted: aspredicted.org
- ClinicalTrials.gov: For clinical trials
