    Overview on the Null Hypothesis Significance Test: A Systematic Review on Essay Literature on its Problems and Solutions

    No full text
    For decades, waxing and waning, there has been an ongoing debate on the values and problems of the ubiquitously used null hypothesis significance test (NHST). With the start of the replication crisis, this debate has flared-up once again, especially in the psychology and psychological methods literature. Arguing for or against the NHST method usually takes place in essays and opinion pieces that cover some, but not all the qualities and problems of the method. The NHST literature landscape is vast, a clear overview is lacking, and participants in the debate seem to be talking past one another. To contribute to a resolution, we conducted a systematic review on essay literature concerning NHST published in psychology and psychological methods journals between 2011 and 2018. We extracted all arguments in defense of (20) and against (70) NHST, and we extracted the solutions (33) that were proposed to remedy (some of) the perceived problems of NHST. Unfiltered, these 123 items form a landscape that is prohibitively difficult to keep in one’s sights. Our contribution to the resolution of the NHST debate is twofold. 1) We performed a thematic synthesis of the arguments and solutions, which carves the landscape in a framework of three zones: mild, moderate, and critical. This reduction summarizes groups of arguments and solutions, thus offering a manageable overview of NHST’s qualities, problems, and solutions. 2) We provide the data on the arguments and solutions as a resource for those who will carry-on the debate and/or study the use of NHST

    The Evolution of Data Sharing Practices in the Psychological Literature

    No full text
    Sharing data has many benefits. However, data sharing rates remain low, for the most part well below 50%. A variety of interventions encouraging data sharing have been proposed. We focus here on editorial policies. Kidwell et al. (2016) assessed the impact of the introduction of badges in Psychological Science; Hardwicke, Mathur, et al. (2018) assessed the impact of Cognition’s mandatory data sharing policy. Both studies found policies to improve data sharing practices, but only assessed the impact of the policy for up to 25 months after its implementation. We examined the effect of these policies over a longer term by reusing their data and collecting a follow-up sample including articles published up until December 31st, 2019. We fit generalized additive models as these allow for a flexible assessment of the effect of time, in particular to identify nonlinear changes in the trend. These models were compared to generalized linear models to examine whether the non-linearity is needed. Descriptive results and the outputs from generalized additive and linear models were coherent with previous findings: following the policies in Cognition and Psychological Science, data sharing statement rates increased immediately and continued to increase beyond the timeframes examined previously, until reaching close to 100%. In Clinical Psychological Science, data sharing statement rates started to increase only two years following the implementation of badges. Reusability rates jumped from close to 0% to around 50% but did not show changes within the pre-policy nor the post-policy timeframes. Journals that did not implement a policy showed no change in data sharing rates or reusability over time. There was variability across journals in the levels of increase, so we suggest future research should examine a larger number of policies to draw conclusions about their efficacy. We also encourage future research to investigate the barriers to data sharing specific to psychology subfields to identify the best interventions to tackle them
