Department Psychologie
Mission Statement:
Psychological science has seen a substantial replication crisis in the last years, with many large scale projects failing to replicate apparently well established findings. With the goal to increase the awareness and the adoption of open science practices, in July 2015 an Open Science Committee was established at the Department Psychology. Its project on the Open Science Framework (OSF) provides different documents and presentations that are used in research and teaching. Furthermore, since 2016 all job descriptions for professorship positions at our department included an "Open Science track record" as desirable characteristic of an applicant. Additionally, we decided to require a PhD/Dissertation agreement between all PhD students and their supervisors that includes planned open science practices. A template for this kind of agreement is provided on our website.
