DESCRIPTION:A pilot study typically refers to a smaller-scale\, preliminary
  study conducted to refine methods and procedures ahead of planned data co
 llection. Piloting is common in psychological research\, and can significa
 ntly influence research outcomes\, but little guidance exists on how to de
 sign\, conduct and report such studies. To find out how to improve transpa
 rency of piloting in psychology\, we conducted an international survey on 
 piloting practices\, attitudes toward reporting pilots\, and perceived bar
 riers to doing so across psychological subfields. Based on data from N = 1
 35 researchers\, we found that researchers do not consistently report thei
 r pilot studies\, but they agree on the importance of including basic pilo
 t study information. The survey also highlighted the diversity of piloting
  practices and their influence on the research process. In the current tal
 k we will present the findings from the survey as well as future avenues t
 o improve transparency of pilot reporting in psychology.

DESCRIPTION:Piloting\, the pre-testing of a method ahead of planned data co
 llection\, plays a vital role in psychological research. Yet\, information
  about the what\, how\, and why of pilot studies is rarely included in fin
 al publications.\n\nTo help motivate a culture where reporting piloting st
 udies is normative and easy\, our working group has developed templates fo
 r reporting pilot studies. This hackathon aims to bring together researche
 rs from diverse backgrounds and fields to test and refine these templates 
 to ensure they are both useful and usable before promoting widespread use.
 \n\nThe session will begin with a short overview of the template developme
 nt process. Participants will then engage in ‘user testing’ and apply 
 the templates to their research. We will end with group discussion and fee
 dback on suggested adaptations. Those interested in participating further 
 will also be welcome to join the working group.
