New job opening at the Center for Open Science: Data Scientist

This is a very important job. Deliver data insights to help us improve OSF for users, and advance the mission of open science. Also, improve our data pipelines to enable the metascience community to study open science behavior.

We’re excited to announce that COS is collaborating on a pilot program with Meta. Using innovative methods from the open science movement to promote rigor and transparency of research, Meta and COS will pilot a new approach to industry-academia partnerships for accessing social media data. https://bit.ly/48OzLnu

@jonny @CenterforOpenScience The details are still TBD, but the general workflow will have us administering an independent peer review process that will be at arm's length from Meta. Presumably the proposals are not themselves critical, but could reveal findings that are critical of products, policies, or practices. Once a proposal is accepted, like the RR model, all findings will be reported regardless of outcome. More detail on the process will be made available as it comes together.

@jonny @CenterforOpenScience Yes, lots of TBD here! A first step is to clarify what data will be accessible for the pilot. Once that is clarified, any proposal that aligns with the available data and makes it through independent review will go ahead.

That said, it will not be surprising if there are some challenges in the implementation between "x data is available" and "x data is delivered." We will do as much advance work as possible to minimize the likelihood that occurs so that only the

@jonny @CenterforOpenScience peer review is the only determining factor of ultimate sharing.

Meta wants this too because of the obvious implications of declining requests once they have made it through peer review.

Finally, yes, still TBD on what data will be included in the pilot (and very TBD on whether the data, scope, and scale will expand post-pilot).

You know, if you think the corporation behind Facebook is likely to be a good partner for your open science endeavors, you may wish to have a conversation with some folks in the social sciences who have found this path less than satisfactory. Or, perhaps consider any other action that corporation has ever taken across its entire history. Just saying.

@kfitz Indeed, the history is not great, but that doesn't obviate the need to advance greater openness by social media companies. We will see if incremental or better improvements are possible!

@manisha @kfitz We also wish to partner with groups that are more aligned across the board with COS mission. But, we do lean-in for places where we can find mission-alignment with orgs that otherwise are less open, especially those for which greater openness could be of substantial societal benefit. In other words, it is worth it to us to try, recognizing the risks are higher and the ceiling may be lower. Like with commercial publishers, our collabs are limited to where we can align on mission.

@jik @manisha @kfitz Hi Jonathan. Yes, we have a risk assessment process that is part of our partnership framework https://www.cos.io/about/partnership-framework. A key part for our managing risk is to only agree to partner with commitments to transparency of the process and outcome. For example, we do not typically sign NDA's except under special circumstances for protecting user privacy data or something that we can't help but be exposed to. Also, we only enter agreements if we believe that the potential impact is..

@jik @manisha @kfitz worth the effort. When the risk of failure is higher, the benefits of success likewise need to be higher. This case is high on both. We are willing to try things on the high risk-reward spectrum, particularly with an orientation to learn from either outcome as use that to improve for the next opportunities to advance our mission.

@briannosek@nerdculture.de avatar

@jik @manisha @kfitz I would revise to "I believe we have sufficient buy-in on a mission-aligned approach to make it worth trying."

I have failed enough times to avoid defaulting to the arrogance that I will succeed where others have not. And, I have failed enough times to be willing to do it when the purpose is important enough, and the upside of success is high enough. (An operational definition of entrepreneurship?)

We shall learn soon enough if we can make productive headway.

@jik @manisha @kfitz I don't mind the push back, and understand the skepticism. I don't, and can't, know if it will be different this time until we try.

Our paper "High replicability of newly discovered
social-behavioral findings is achievable" appears today in Nature Human Behaviour.

Just as the large replications provided an inflection point in identifying replicability challenges, this paper does so for solutions.

An important model posits two routes to persuasion. A peripheral route relies on superficial cues of credibility; a central route involves depth consideration of the reasons and evidence.

The Gino arguments seem to bank on readers sticking with the peripheral route.

I participated in a podcast interview with the Issues in Science and Technology Magazine. We discussed the Center for Open Science's strategy to improve the research culture toward openness, integrity, and reproducibility.

With open data becoming the default, the risks for privacy and security become more acute. In this new paper, we discuss solutions for reducing re-identification risk of data with human participants while simultaneously promoting sharing and reproducibility. Feedback welcome.

The @DataColada team has been sued by Francesca Gino for exposing the fraudulent data underlying four of her papers (she claims defamation). The legal defense could get expensive. Please join us in providing financial support for their defense.
