Use when meeting Developmental Psychology's (APA) open-science and transparency expectations under the Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP) guidelines — data and materials sharing with persistent identifiers, preregistration, sample-size justification, and JARS-consistent disclosure — with the ethical handling of data from minors and vulnerable populations. Prepares compliance; it does not waive requirements.

# Open Science & Transparency (devpsych-open-science-and-transparency) Developmental Psychology has adopted the **Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP)** guidelines, so a submission is judged partly on **disclosure, data/materials availability, and preregistration**. The developmental twist is that much data come from **minors and vulnerable populations**, so "share everything" is tempered by **consent scope, confidentiality, and re-identification risk** — handled as a justified, documented constraint, not silent opacity. Build this early, not at acceptance. ## When to trigger - Building data/materials deposits and the data-availability statement - Deciding whether and how to share data collected from children/vulnerable groups (and what to withhold) - Linking a preregistration and reporting its status under JARS - A reviewer or editor flagged transparency, reproducibility, or sample-size justification ## What TOP-style transparency asks (verify current wording on the official page) 1. **Data and materials availability.** Make data, analysis scripts, and materials available where ethically possible, with a **data-availability statement**; constraints (consent scope, minors' con

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill devpsych-open-science-and-transparency --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
