A Registered Report is a type of research journal article in which the introduction, methods, and analysis plan are proposed and peer-reviewed prior to the execution of the study. The goal is to limit publication bias based on study findings by conducting peer review on the merits of the study before the results are known. First introduced in 2012 (Chambers, 2013; Chambers & Tzavella, 2022), this format of journal article publication has become more commonplace. Here we provide an overview of the format as well as eight core lessons we learned while preparing Registered Reports. We integrate guidelines from the literature with our experience to provide insight into the process of preparing and publishing a Registered Report for those who have not yet tried it. Though Registered Reports require researchers to invest more effort at the earlier stages of idea generation, design, and analysis planning, they will benefit from the feedback of reviewers when it is most beneficial and leave behind the fear of rejection due to unanticipated study limitations or null results.

注册报告是一种研究期刊文章,其中的引言、方法和分析计划在研究执行之前就已提出并经过同行评审。其目的是通过在结果知晓之前对研究的优点进行同行评审,来限制基于研究结果的发表偏倚。这种期刊文章发表形式于2012年首次引入(钱伯斯,2013;钱伯斯和察韦拉,2022),如今已变得更为常见。在此,我们概述了这种形式以及我们在准备注册报告时学到的八点核心经验。我们将文献中的指南与自身经验相结合,为那些尚未尝试过的人提供有关准备和发表注册报告过程的见解。尽管注册报告要求研究人员在想法产生、设计和分析规划的早期阶段投入更多精力,但他们将在最有益的时候受益于审稿人的反馈,并消除因意外的研究局限性或无效结果而被拒稿的担忧。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2024美国心理学会,保留所有权利)
