On further reflection, the selection of @simine.com as Editor-in-Chief of Psychological Science is one of the most important milestones for the reform movement in psychology. There will be impact on the journal, sure. But more, selecting a committed, visible reformer illustrates its normalization.

Open data sharing is a good thing; Protecting participant privacy is a good thing. Sometimes these two good things are in conflict. Our new preprint introduces a decision-making framework and open source tools to help share as openly as possible and as closed as necessary. osf.io/preprints/me...

Fraud cases may capture attention, but they remain the exception. The quieter attitudes and actions of the many are incrementally moving science toward greater integrity and rigor. The visibility of fraud and other antagonism-to-open may contribute to underestimating the support for open science.
