Abstract
Abstract:Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) present some of the greatest challenges faced by educators, and experience some of the most problematic outcomes. To increase the likelihood that students with EBD will be successful in school and in life, practitioners should implement effective interventions. Trustworthy research is the primary means to identify effective practices. Open science can be used to help verify research findings as trustworthy, as well as improve their accessibility. In this article, we discuss the open science movement and describe five open-science practices (i.e., preregistration, Registered Reports, open data and materials, open access and preprints, and open review) that may help increase the trustworthiness, efficiency, and impact of EBD research. We argue that the implementation of these practices may increase the field's capacity to identify and verify truly effective practices, and facilitate broad accessibility of research for all stakeholders; thereby improving policies and instructional practice for students with EBD.
期刊介绍:
Education and Treatment of Children (ETC) is devoted to the dissemination of information concerning the development of services for children and youth who are at risk for or experiencing emotional or behavioral problems. A primary criterion for publication is that the material be of direct value to educators, parents, child care providers, or mental health professionals in improving the effectiveness of their services. Therefore, authors are required to compose their manuscripts in a clear, concise style that will be readily understood by the practitioners who are likely to make use of the information.
