A primer on open science for cognitive psychologists

Psychological science is said to be facing a ‘replication crisis’ with widespread concerns regarding the replicability, reproducibility, and transparency of its findings. This crisis has led to the fastpaced advancement of open science, with a series of new practices proposed to mitigate these issues and improve the research landscape. In this primer, I explain how cognitive psychologists can implement preprints, preregistration, Registered Reports, and open materials, code, and data into their research workflow. I also outline how such training can be embedded into the higher education curriculum to facilitate these skills in students who represent the future of our discipline.
