Evaluating the Quality of Scientific Research in Psychology

支持公众对科学的信任从未像现在这样重要，然而许多科学正在经历一场信任危机。目前依靠期刊声望来衡量我们对个人研究成果的信心的体系，为科学家创造了腐败的动机，并有可能破坏公众对科学的信任。世界各地数千名科学家和机构通过签署《研究评估宣言》表示，研究评估需要彻底改革。一个解决方案是创建一个公开、透明和有效的过程，用于生成和共享专家对个别论文的评估。该项目旨在启动心理学领域的改革，并与preeview合作，将其推广到其他领域。

Buttressing public trust in science has never been more important, yet many sciences are experiencing a crisis of confidence. The current system of relying on journal prestige to calibrate our confidence in individual research findings has created corrupt incentives for scientists, and risks undermining public trust in science. Thousands of scientists and institutions around the world have indicated that research evaluation needs an overhaul by signing the Declaration on Research Assessment. One solution is to create a public, transparent, and valid process for producing and sharing expert evaluations of individual papers. This project aims to launch this reform in psychology, and partner with PREreview to help it spread to other fields.
