The promise and pitfalls of preregistration
Discussion meeting organised by Dr Tom Hardwicke, Prof Marcus Munafò, Dr Sophia Crüwell, Prof Dorothy Bishop, Prof Eric-Jan Wagenmakers
Serious concerns about research quality have provoked debate across scientific disciplines about the merits of preregistration — publicly declaring study plans before collecting or analysing data. This meeting will initiate an interdisciplinary dialogue exploring the epistemological and pragmatic dimensions of preregistration, identifying potential limits of application, and developing a practical agenda to guide future research and optimise implementation.
