Open data for developmental science
Christina Bergmann, Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences & Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics
Slides available here
Open data is one of the key mandates in calls for increased transparency, with badges, citation advantages, and sometimes even refusal to publish papers when data are not made open. For developmental researchers, this need for transparency stands in stark contrast with confidentiality, especially when working with infants. Christina reviews developmental science’s impressive history of open data to show that there are ways to ethically and responsibly share data, and then discusses different strategies and emerging best practices to balance participant protection with transparency.

Creating reproducible research reports Using RMarkdown
Michael Frank, Stanford University
Slides available here
In this workshop, Mike Frank (with the support of TAs Anjie Cao and Alvin Tan) led participants through the benefits of using RMarkdown to create reproducible research reports. Follow along with the exercises to see how simple it is to integrate writing and analyses in your workflow.

ManyBabies: An Introduction to Open Science
Nicolás Alessandroni & Krista Byers-Heinlein, Concordia University
Slides available on OSF
In this workshop, Nicolás and Krista introduce the open science perspective for psychological research. The aim is for participants to discover, discuss, and engage in using open science practices (e.g., open access, open data, preprints, pre-registration) and to learn ways to apply them in their own research. The workshop does not require prior knowledge of open science; all those interested in learning or deepening their knowledge of how to do open research are most welcome!
