The Center for Open Science is a

Laura and John Arnold Foundation and others.[2]

The organization began with work in reproducibility of

Reproducibility Project: Psychology.[3][4][5] A second reproducibility project for cancer biology research has also been started through a partnership with Science Exchange.[6] In March 2017, the Center published a detailed strategic plan.[7] Brian Nosek posted a letter outlining the history of the Center and future directions.[8]

In 2020, the Center received a grant from Fast Grants to promote the publication of COVID-19 research on the platform.[9]

In 2021, the Center for Open Science was honored with the

Einstein Foundation Award for Promoting Quality in Research [de] in the institutional category for their contribution to fostering research integrity and to improving transparency and accessibility.[10]

Open Science Framework

Reproducibility project

The Open Science Framework (OSF) is an open source software project that facilitates open collaboration in science research. The framework was initially used to work on a project in the reproducibility of psychology research,[11][12] but has subsequently become multidisciplinary.[13] The current reproducibility aspect of the project is a crowdsourced empirical investigation of the reproducibility of a variety of studies from psychological literature, sampling from three major journals: Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Psychological Science, and Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition.[14] Scientists from all over the world volunteer to replicate a study of their choosing from these journals, and follow a structured protocol for designing and conducting a high-powered replication of the key effect. The results were published in 2015.[15]

Preprints

In 2016, OSF started three new preprint services: engrXiv, SocArXiv, and (with the Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science) PsyArXiv.[16] It subsequently opened its own preprint server in 2017, OSF Preprints.[17] Its unified search function includes preprints from OSF Preprints, alongside those from other servers such as Preprints.org, Thesis Commons, PeerJ, and multiple ArXiv repositories.[18]
