Open Science Framework Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• So you wanna de-bog yourself

  Last night I happened to listen to an episode[1] on EconTalk where the author of the post (Adam Mastroianni, a psychologist) was a guest. Definitely worth a listen. Adam also supports "open science framework" (https://osf.io/) and publishes his research and related artifacts there, which I really appreciate!

• Ask HN: How to discover new and interesting papers?

  Here are a few options to consider. First, Google Scholar. If you're logged into Google it will make a handful of recommendations on its front page. I've not really paid attention to how good the recommendations are. It says they're based on your Google Scholar record and alerts, so I guess you'll need both/one of those for it to work. https://scholar.google.com Second, Scopus from Elsevier (a company that plenty... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Bad numbers in the “gzip beats BERT” paper?

  It's customary to use OSF (https://osf.io/) on papers this "groundbreaking," as it encourages scientists to validate and replicate the work. It's also weird that at this stage there are not validation checks in place, exactly like those the author performed. There was so much talk of needing this post-"replication crisis.". - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• For members of "science twitter" who are opposed to Twitter's recently deployed content-wall - what are some alternative platforms that help academics openly share and discuss scientific research?

  2.Open Science Framework - A non-profit (but not open source) "GitHub for scientific research" [4]. OSF is an incredible team and and product, that helps scientists openly publish their papers, datasets, code, and other research outputs. Their website is also geared towards a technical audience too - they help scientists store information, but they don't have a feature that helps users discover discuss new... Source: 11 months ago

• Análisis sobre el impacto de bajar los impuestos marginales - USS

  Our headline result is that a 10 percent increase in taxes is associated with a decrease in annual gross domestic product (GDP) growth of approximately −0.2 percent when bundled as part of a TaxNegative tax-spending-deficit combination. The same tax increase is associated with an increase in annual GDP growth of approximately 0.2 percent when part of a TaxPositive fiscal policy package. All of our data, output,...

• Our reports never contradict our funding. What would you like our report to conclude?

  As far as I can see, there are two areas to maybe tidy up this abhorrent mess. Initiatives such as the Open Science Foundation which would do as much as can be done to eradicate P-Hacking, salami slicing, publishing bias and all the other areas of misinformation and misdirection available to researchers, and a switch over to Bayesian Probability where it makes sense. The problem with the OSF (or something like... Source: about 1 year ago

• Graph mapping test- can watching the video that is provided with the test files before taking the test inflate your score?

  Before the actual test starts there are about 12 practice problems and the test is explained by text. I dont know if the norm group only had access to this tutorial or to the separate video as well. I dont know if the person who uploaded the test files to the osf.io is the test author or not.

• How to protect research ideas that are pre-registered

  Yup osf.io is the way to go if you want to embargo it for a while. But also remember ideas for experiments are a dime a dozen, it's the legwork that's the actual science. Source: about 1 year ago

• good open source site (open source for data) for posting metrology or scientific data?

  There’s also something like https://osf.io. Source: over 1 year ago

• Where to register a protocol for a scoping review

  Prospero and the Open Science Framework have been recommended for SRs, but don't seem to be built for scoping reviews. Source: over 1 year ago

• Open Access Research - A research collaboration platform

  So there is osf.io for collaborating on research projects. But as someone who is not in college and who does research as a hobby, I find it quite unpleasant to use. So I came up with a solution. An academic collaboration platform designed for high school students and people who don't do academia for a living. This product strives to make academics and intelligence accessible and appealing to a larger demographic.... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Looking for a place to find personality tests

  Also, just because the questions are not printed in the article doesn’t mean that they are copyrighted and you can’t use them. You can email the authors and ask them for a copy of the questions or look for their OSF page where they will post their data and materials and stuff. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Our new study shows that data availability statements are not very useful; 1670 (93%) authors who indicated that data are available on request either did not respond or declined to share their data with us. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology

  On the total opposite end, some of us make our data publicly available as a standard! Check out the Open Science Framework at https://osf.io. Source: almost 2 years ago

• “Those more receptive to bullshit are less reflective, lower in cognitive ability, are more prone to ontological confusions and conspiratorial ideation, are more likely to hold religious and paranormal beliefs, and are more likely to endorse complementary and alternative medicine.“

  If you are data literate and want to see if a research paper passes the smell test in a journal that doesn't provide all the data from published studies, see if you can find it on osf.io. Most reputable social science research published in recent years is on there. You can also check out sites like datacolada.org, https://replicationindex.com, and https://retractionwatch.com to see if others question the validity... Source: almost 2 years ago

• public server to host bigwig files for visualisation on UCSC genome browser

  Hi, OSF can handle it: https://osf.io/ You can store the files and generate the links accessible from the browser with OSF. Team projects, data description, wiki, private links are other nice bonuses. I hope you like it! Source: over 2 years ago

• Ideas

  At the end of scoring, my scored data is 300 participants * 1 score each. Each data-entry is a single number. This data is not reported in the paper because it is still essentially raw data. If I'm doing Open Science, I share the data, but it isn't published in the paper; the paper will link to some online resource where they can be downloaded, whether external, like the OSF at https://osf.io , or internal to...

• Any social psychologists / behavioral researchers that use R for their main analysis?

  There are a ton of these! I would google around, since you'll know what method fits best to your project. I would also try to take a look at the supplemental materials of recent papers in your field on OSF. Papers for top journals will often share their code (and usually it's in R). So it will give you good examples from your specific part of social psych/behavioral science. If you're looking for a SAS to R guide;... Source: over 2 years ago

• Image sharing website for copyrighted stimuli?

  I have a question/problem: For a publication I want to make a bunch of stimuli public that I have used in an experiment. The stimuli (pictures) are basically pictures uploaded and shared on the internet by various, sometimes anonymous people, so while they are copyrighted, they are also just "out there". While they cannot be put into the publication I want the pictures to be as available as possible, and osf.io is... Source: over 2 years ago
