CPUP follows stringent guidelines for the transparency, integrity, and rigor of scientific production, and thus encourages a responsible, open and inclusive approach to "science making" wherein the team members are invited to share the:
Research Plans
that is, to share the goals, the hypotheses, the methodology, and the planned data analysis
Materials Employed
e.g., surveys, stimuli, experimental tasks, etc.
Data Inputs
provided they are previously made anonymous
Scripts and Codes
of the tools used to transform, analyze and graph the data
Pre-Print and the Post-Print Manuscript
giving public access to all those looking for scientific knowledge
Other Resources
such as the data management plan, and supporting graphic material used in public communications
Likewise, the center also recommends:
Preregistering the Research Plan
by submitting it to a scientific journal for pre-approaval prior to data collection
Using Data Management Tools and Repositories
such as DMPonline, Open Science Framework, Argus, Zenodo
Exhaustive Description of the Research
providing undisclosed detailed information that enables critical reading and later replication
Conducting Replication Studies
that checks for the reproducibility and robustness of the scientific findings
Publishing Positive & Negative Results
to prevent biases and misleading statistical artifacts
