“…In line with the journal's efforts to support and promote open science (Beauchamp, 2023), Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology (SEPP) is pleased to now offer Registered Reports, as an additional publishing option, to complement the traditional manuscript format that the journal has implemented since its inception. Registered Reports are a type of article in which the peer-review process is undertaken via two steps, and are pre-accepted on the basis of the value of the research question, the theoretical and/or empirical rationale underpinning the study hypotheses, as well as methodological and analytic rigour (Chambers, 2019;Chambers & Tzavella, 2022;Nosek & Lakens, 2014).…”

“…However, it is also one that the journal is fully committed to supporting and advancing. Open science will continue to evolve, and as highlighted in my inaugural editorial (Beauchamp, 2023), we will endeavor to be responsive to those advances. With respect to Registered Reports, we will (continue to) welcome input and feedback directly from the community of scholars in our field, but we will also be attentive to feedback via the “Registered Reports Community Feedback” website that is designed to procure anonymous feedback from both authors and reviewers of Registered Reports (https://registeredreports.cardiff.ac.uk/).…”

In line with the journal's efforts to support and promote open science (Beauchamp, 2023), Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology (SEPP) is pleased to now offer Registered Reports, as an additional publishing option, to complement the traditional manuscript format that the journal has implemented since its inception. Registered Reports are a type of article in which the peer review process is undertaken via two steps and are preaccepted on the basis of the value of the research question, the theoretical and/or empirical rationale underpinning the study hypotheses, as well as the methodological and analytic rigor (Chambers, 2019;Chambers & Tzavella, 2022;Nosek & Lakens, 2014). Specifically, with Registered Reports, a study protocol is submitted in the form of a Stage 1 manuscript before any data have been collected or analyzed, and following peer review manuscripts are offered "in-principle acceptance" (IPA), rejected outright, or rendered a "revised and resubmit" decision whereby authors are invited to address reviewers' concerns and observations before a final decision is made on the suitability of their Stage 1 procedures. Once a study has been completed, and the data have been collected, analyzed, and interpreted, the authors submit a Stage 2 manuscript that includes the results and interpretation of the study findings and make available the study materials, code, and data. This means that deidentified raw data and digital study materials must be made freely available in a public repository/archive, unless there is a legal or ethical reason that precludes this, with a link provided within the Stage 2 manuscript. Of note, it is not sufficient to indicate that these materials and data will be "available upon request"; they must be made open and available at the point of publication. Critically, if the authors of a Stage 2 manuscript implement the methods (including quality checks) and analyses as articulated in the Stage 1 protocol and suitably interpret the findings, that manuscript will then be accepted regardless of the significance (or absence thereof), novelty, or direction (positive vs. negative) of the findings.Registered Reports have increasingly been embraced by a number of psychology journals over the past decade, including several American Psychological Association journals, as well as one journal in the field of sport and exercise psychology, namely the Elsevier publication Psychology of Sport and Exercise. After consultation with the editorial board in early 2023, there was strong support for the journal to adopt this publication format as an option for authors. There are a number of reasons for offering Registered Reports, especially for hypothesis-driven research. These include minimizing results-focused publication bias and ensuring high-quality studies are published regardless of the findings (Chambers & Tzavella, 2022). Such an approach also helps to optimize protocols (including design characteristics, such as ensuring studies are sufficiently powered) before studies commence, while also a...

Open Science is an important development in science, not only to overcome the replication crisis or crisis of confidence but also to openly and transparently describe research processes to enable replication and reproduction. This study describes the current state of the art within German-speaking sport psychology regarding open science-related attitudes, behaviors, and intentions and identifies the reasons for a potential reluctance toward open science. The findings revealed a match between open science-related attitudes and intentions, although open science-related behaviors still fall behind those two. We discovered time constraints, time allocation issues, and anticipated competitive disadvantages if not all researchers adhere to open science practices as the reasons behind this behavioral reluctance. Our findings suggest that the development of open science has clearly reached the German-speaking sport-psychological community, but that there is considerable potential for improvement – especially regarding behaviors.
