psci-open-science-and-transparency

Use when meeting Psychological Science's open-science requirements. For submissions on or after 1 January 2024 the journal requires open data and materials (case-by-case exemptions), a Research Transparency Statement placed between the Introduction and Methods, persistent identifiers for shared content, and treats transparency limits and preregistration quality as factors in editorial decisions. Prepares compliance; it does not waive requirements.

# Open Science & Transparency (psci-open-science-and-transparency)

This is the skill that most distinguishes a Psychological Science submission. Since **1 January 2024**
the journal has **required** open data and materials and a graded **Research Transparency Statement** —
the badge era is over, and "**limits on transparency will be a factor in editorial decisions.**"
Prepare this early, not at acceptance.

## When to trigger

- Building the data/materials deposits and the Research Transparency Statement
- Deciding whether (and how) to claim an exemption from sharing
- Linking preregistration and reporting its status
- A reviewer or editor flagged transparency or reproducibility
