Method, reporting and dissemination, reproducibility, evaluation and incentives. |
Five measures |
|
What is the problem Munafò et al. talk about? |
Some researchers see patterns in random data (noise). |
|
|
Name two biases that can cause researchers to see patterns in random data. |
Hindsight bias and the confirmation bias. |
H. C. |
|
What is apophenia? |
The tendency to see patterns in random data. |
|
|
What is de hindsight bias? |
The tendency to see an event as being predictable only after it occured. |

|
What is the confirmation bias? |
The tendency to focus on evidence that is in line with our expectations or favoured explanation. |

|
Method-wise, what measures can be implemented when doing research? |
Protecting against cognitive biases with blinding, improving methodological training, implementing independent methodological support and encouraging collaboration and team science. |
|
|
What is blinding? |
Avoid researchers and participants to know about the experimental conditions and research hypotheses. |
|
|
What is avoiding researchers and participants to know about the experimental conditions and research hypotheses called? |
Blinding. |
|
|
For what is methodological training needed? |
To learn how to control confounding variables with randomization or counterbalancing, how to blind to avoid experimenter bias and how to make use of a within-subjects design when possible to maximize power. |
Three things. |
|
In terms of reporting and dissemination, what measures can be implemented when communicating research? |
Promoting study pre-gregistration and improving the quality of reporting. |
Two things. |
|
What is the publication bias/file drawer problem? |
Less studies being published than conducted caused by only positive results being published. |
|
|
What can the pre-registration of of a study avoid? |
The publication bias/file drawer problem. |
|
|
In terms of reproducibility, what measure can be implemented? |
Promoting transparency and open science. |
|
|
What is open science? |
