The article emphasizes the importance of properly recording, sharing, and valuing scientific software to improve research integrity and reproducibility. It advocates for better training in software practices for scientists, streamlined archiving processes, and institutional support to handle the evolving nature of research software, proposing the 'CODE beyond FAIR' approach to address current challenges.
Four research groups in the field of experimental psychology successfully replicated each other's work by following best practices, achieving an 86% success rate. The study, published in Nature Human Behaviour, demonstrates that research in the field can be of top quality if rigorous steps, such as preregistration of study protocols, are taken. The projects addressed serious research questions in various fields of social science, and the results suggest that these findings could apply to psychology more broadly. This effort aims to restore the reputation of experimental psychology and demonstrate that not all social sciences are inherently flawed.
