Abstract Preregistration is an open science practice which aims to improve research transparency and mitigate questionable research practices, like cherry‐picking results. It helps protect against cognitive biases, like hindsight bias, that can influence how study outcomes are interpreted.

Evaluating the efficacy of tagging adhesives for insect tracking
Two‐part epoxy resin delivered the strongest RFID tag adhesion on carabid beetles, exceeding polyvinyl acetate, cosmetic latex and cyanoacrylate adhesives. Adhesive performance was consistent across Harpalus, Leistus and Poecilus; species effects were non‐significant, supporting a broadly applicable protocol for carabid RFID tagging studies.

A Farewell to Arms… Manufacturing: Learning From a Landmine Producer Who Became a Deminer
ABSTRACT Certain industries—labeled “dirty,” “sinful,” “stigmatized,” or “controversial”—are under public scrutiny because of the ethical, social, and environmental concerns that they raise. Previous research has typically focused on the industry or organizational level of analysis, examining how companies in controversial industries can enhance their ...

To vary or not to vary: A flexible empirical Bayes factor for testing variance components
Abstract Random effects are the gold standard for capturing structural heterogeneity, such as individual differences or temporal dependence. Yet testing their presence is difficult because variance components are constrained to be non‐negative, creating a boundary problem. This paper introduces a flexible empirical Bayes factor (EBF) for testing random

ABSTRACT Child protection (CP) systems are increasingly incorporating procedural and restorative justice principles in their practice frameworks, which are interpersonally focused and aim to respect and empower families. In addition, the importance of professional judgement in CP is increasingly being acknowledged. Yet, little research has investigated
