Hi all,<br>
<br>
On behalf of Susann Fiedler (apologies for cross-posting):<br>
<br>
Dear fellow psychologists,<br>
<br>
To maintain high scientific standards in our field, it is extremely
important that we regularly take a step back and assess the
research, data analysis, reporting, and publication practices that
represent the current standards in psychology. You may be aware of
the debate going on in the psychological community regarding a
recent article that addressed the question of whether current
practices should be revised (Simmons et al., 2011, Psychological
Science). The article has led to diverse reactions among
psychologists; and there is much speculation concerning the popular
opinion of "psychologists as a whole" towards the recommendations
put forth by the article.<br>
<br>
In cooperation with the Open Science Framework (<a
href="http://openscienceframework.org/" target="_blank">http://openscienceframework.org/</a>),
we are conducting a worldwide survey of psychologists to determine
the extent to which the recommendations in the above mentioned
article are supported by the psychological community. Everyone's
opinion is important; and it is not necessary that you have read the
article in order to participate.<br>
<br>
Share your opinion about psychological research practices and the
quality of publications in psychological journals by participating
in this short survey!<br>
<br>
The survey takes approximately 10 minutes and is completely
anonymous. Participants may also enter into a raffle to win one of
three 50$ Amazon gift certificates.<br>
