Guides the creation of rigorous pre-analysis plans (PAPs) for experimental social science following DA-RT and APSA transparency standards.
This skill assists researchers in drafting comprehensive Pre-Analysis Plans (PAPs) to establish analytic transparency before data collection begins. It operationalizes high-level social science standards like DA-RT and JARS, providing expert guidance on selecting appropriate registries (OSF, AEA, AsPredicted), structuring documents, and specifying complex analytical strategies. By helping users define locked, conditional, and exploratory analysis tiers and guiding the pre-registration of analysis code using simulated data, it ensures research integrity and helps mitigate the 'garden of forking paths' in experimental workflows.
