Abstract:
Open science practices, such as pre-registration and data sharing, increase transparency and may improve the rigor and replicability of developmental science. However, developmental science faces unique challenges and considerations, particularly for longitudinal studies, or studies using special populations. This may require a new model or new guidelines. Isaac Petersen, Bob McMurray and Keith Apfelbaum will lead a discussion about the challenges and pitfalls faced by developmental...
