It can be made public immediately after registration or kept private under an embargo until a specified date, for example, until the study is published. It records the research questions, hypotheses, research design and analysis strategies, making them transparent for others. This makes any later deviations from the plan recognisable. That reduces the scope for distorting or adjusting results after the fact without it being noticed. It is also of great benefit […]https://openeconomics.zbw.eu/wp-content/uploads/1922/06/BenefitsPreregistrations.png20022349
