Data and code archives, along with better methods training.
Data manipulation generally doesn't happen by changing values in a data frame. It's done by running and rerunning similar models with slightly different specifications to get a P value under .05, or by applying various "manipulations" to variables or the models themselves for the same effect. It's much easier to identify this when you have the code that was used to recreate whatever was eventually published.
- LeonB 5y agoRegistering the methods/details before performing the experiments is another technique that is used.
- dagw 5y agoSure, but often there are perfectly valid reasons to change your methodology half way through a project when you know a lot more about the thing you are trying to do than you did before you started.
