devpsych-open-science-and-transparency

Use when meeting Developmental Psychology's (APA) open-science and transparency expectations under the Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP) guidelines — data and materials sharing with persistent identifiers, preregistration, sample-size justification, and JARS-consistent disclosure — with the ethical handling of data from minors and vulnerable populations. Prepares compliance; it does not waive requirements.

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

Developmental Psychology has adopted the **Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP)** guidelines, so a
submission is judged partly on **disclosure, data/materials availability, and preregistration**. The
developmental twist is that much data come from **minors and vulnerable populations**, so "share
everything" is tempered by **consent scope, confidentiality, and re-identification risk** — handled as a
justified, documented constraint, not silent opacity. Build this early, not at acceptance.

## When to trigger

- Building data/materials deposits and the data-availability statement
- Deciding whether and how to share data collected from children/vulnerable groups (and what to withhold)
- Linking a preregistration and reporting its status under JARS
- A reviewer or editor flagged transparency, reproducibility, or sample-size justification
