Experimentation and manipulation with preregistration
研究预注册要求如何影响研究者通过实验生成信息并可能进行无信息操纵的行为，发现预注册虽能减少p-hacking，但也可能导致更恶劣的伪造研究。
Preregistration requires scientists to describe the planned research activities before their project begins. Preregistration improves transparency in empirical research and is an institutional response to scientific misconduct. This paper studies the impact of a preregistration requirement in a model in which a sender can generate information for a receiver by running private experiments. The sender can also engage in uninformative manipulation. This paper argues that a preregistration requirement can discourage p-hacking, but also result in even more detrimental faked studies.
