Beyond disclosure requirements and replication reports, journals can encourage or require practices that shift incentives and decrease bias. For example, in 2014 eight charter journals in psychology and neuroscience adopted badges to acknowledge articles that met criteria for Open Data, Open Materials, and Preregistration (http://osf.io/TVyXZ). Further, journals can make explicit that replications are welcome, not discouraged [85], particularly of research that had been published previously in that journal. Finally, journals like Psychological Science are changing to allow fulsome description of methods [86]. Full description may facilitate the adoption of standards in contexts that allow substantial flexibility. For example, a study of 241 studies using fMRI found 223 unique analysis pipelines with little justification for this variation [87]. Further, activation patterns were strongly dependent on the analysis pipeline applied.
