If progress is not to falter, students must be trained in open research The how and why of conducting transparent, rigorous, ethical research must be explicitly taught, say Madeleine Pownall, Charlotte Pennington and Flavio Azevedo

“Open research is about more than the tightening of analytical and methodological standards. The movement also invites us to reconsider how, and by whom, knowledge is created, shared and evaluated”

Lower caution, not inhibitory control, predicts gambling severity – a Registered Report Models of gambling disorder, along with other addiction-related conditions, identify impulsive traits as a key component to developing challenging behaviors. This is supported by empirical findings...

This just published. Great work by Michelle Oxtoby. Full article: Lower caution, not inhibitory control, predicts gambling severity – a Registered Report www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Naturally, this is an open educational resource: It is free and will forever stay free. We are also considering making it a living book: There are a few areas that we think deserve more attention. If you are an expert on something that you think is missing from this work, please get in touch!

At the FORRT Replication Hub, our mission is to support researchers who want to replicate previous findings. We have now published a big new component with which we want to fulfill this mission: An open access handbook for reproduction and replication studies: forrt.org/replication_...

“Lower Caution, not Inhibitory Control, predicts Gambling Severity - A Registered Report” by Michelle C. Oxtoby, @drcpennington.bsky.social‬, Richard J. Tunney, & Craig Hedge #accepted

#OpenScience principles help students gain lots of useful skills that are an advantage on the job market in and beyond academia. Read our latest book chapter where we provide tips for educators to bolster employability through open science: doi.org/10.31219/osf...

Love this!! Have a great time 😃

Thoroughly enjoyed presenting a 3-minute Rapid Talk at #CAGR2025, about our cognitive psychology study. We found that Lower Caution, not Inhibitory Control, predicts Higher Gambling Severity.

Thank you to the best supervisors:

I was already convinced by the PDF argument but you've convinced me about excel, too! Seeing/knowing the structure is important.

Yes, I had the same thought! Makes it harder/more work for someone to run reproducible analyses. But the same could then be said for a read-only excel file...

Some really good advice here from the Open Science Framework (@cos.io) on organizing files. I particularly like the recommendation to make raw data 'readme' so it can't be accidentally altered or mixed.
