“…The latter principle of accessibility speaks directly to diversity and representation, and yet diversity is not a strong point of discussion within the movement. For example, recent editorials and essays on open science do not make any mention of increasing diversity in the movement (e.g., Lewis, 2019;Renkewitz & Heene, 2019). As we discuss more below, diversity efforts are sometimes perceived to be stymied by the false notion that there is only one "right" way to do open science, which is inflexible and time consuming and may limit researchers from other regions of the world or disciplines to believe they can be involved in the movement (Allen & Mehler, 2019;Bahlai et al, 2019;Kathawalla et al, 2020).…”

Cultural Psychology, Diversity, and Representation in Open Science

The current moment in psychology is one of great challenges and great opportunities. The open science movement--the move towards more transparent, credible, and reproducible science--has led to a redefinition of what constitutes “normal science.” However, the field of cultural psychology, broadly construed, has by and large not engaged with the open science movement, and likewise, the open science movement has by and large not engaged with cultural psychology. The purpose of the present chapter is to bring open science and cultural psychology closer together, highlighting how they can benefit one another. In doing so, we focus our discussion on three types of representations regarding diversity in psychological research and how they intersect with open science: representation of researchers, or the diversity of the scientists actually doing the research, representation of samples, or who is included as participants in our research studies, and representation of perspectives, or the substantive conceptual and theoretical views we bring to our work. For each of these three types of representation we outline the problem, and then discuss how embracing the principles and behaviors of open science can help.

“…A second concern about making data open is the risk of re-identification (Lewis, 2019). This may be a particularly salient concern for researchers working with ethnic minorities or other marginalized populations that, due to their minority status, may be at a heightened risk for re-identification.…”

“…In their model, the most transparent form of academic publication involves the pre-registration of study hypotheses, design, and data analysis plans. Lewis (2019) and Dienlin et al (2020) discuss pre-registration more extensively, and the Center for Open Science offers expanded details on the process of pre-registration at https://www.cos.io/prereg. 2.…”

“…a given study, which might include study design documents, stimulus materials, survey metrics, and data analysis and output files. Lewis (2019) and Deinlein et al (2020) engage the Center for Open Science's nomenclature of "open materials" and "open data" when referring to these respective practices. Bowman and Keene (2018) suggested an ordinal-level model of transparency in which the du jour standard claim that study content is available "by request to Author" is relatively opaque, sharing study materials is more transparent, and sharing study materials and data are increasingly more transparent.…”

Challenges and Best Practices Associated with Sharing Research Materials and Research Data for Communication Scholars

Scientific practices are constantly evolving to meet the best practices and standards available at a point in time. In the current publication environment, advances in communication technology in tandem with concerns about the transparency of extant communication scholarship have encouraged many to reconsider how we share knowledge with one another. Among a broader suite of open science practices, two specific changes have been advocated for: sharing research materials and sharing research data. As part of an ongoing conversation within communication science, this essay summarizes and explains how researchers can critically consider so-called "open materials" and "open data" when publishing in Communication Studies as well as other communication and adjacent journals.

“…Effective communication between the evaluator and the researcher is a key factor for open science, which is why the open-peer review is introduced. Communication plays a crucial role in the insertion of external actors (e.g., citizen scientists) to have control over data collection and the obtaining of results [Lewis, 2020;Callon, 2012;Schenk, Guittard, 2012]. It is necessary to know the limitations of the research or project, suggest clear improvements, remove doubts from users and manage exchanges between academics and managers.…”

Open innovation allows partnerships between business through knowledge sharing. The mission of open science is to encourage information sharing about academic research. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the relevance of open science to open innovation and vice versa, especially in the context of emerging economies. Furthermore, it aims to show the results of the intersection between university and innovation companies. The methodology was based on a systematic literature review to understand how researchers have been studying the subject. It also focuses on the relevance of open innovation and open science to business management and information science fields. Therefore, the connection between open science and open innovation is fundamental to encourage partnership between business and university. This kind of partnership contributes to the economy of developing countries, so business can become more competitive.
