Předpoklady
The course builds upon conceptual issues. It is impossible to completely omit some statistical or research terminology from the debates, as the topics of research and statistics are tightly intertwined, however, the course is more methodological and/or philosophical than statistical. Basic knowledge of methodology (having passed an equivalent of Fundamentals of psychological research at FSS) is, however, strongly recommended. Having passed or simultaneously studying a lvl one statistics course (equivalent to Statistical data analysis I at FSS) is strongly recommended as well. Basic high-school background in philosophy and/or having passed a lvl 1 philosophy course (an equivalent of The philosophical fundamentals of psychological knowledge at FSS) should put you at ease.

Cíle předmětu
Psychology has sustained a heavy hit during the ongoing replicability crisis (also called “the crisis of confidence”). The GRP course teaches students how to conduct research adhering to principles of scientific rigor, ethics, and open science, and how to recognize studies and research projects that can be trusted as examples of serious scientific endeavors. By these means, the course aims to prevent the students from committing one of the many sins of questionable research practice. The six modules of the course illustrate the dire consequences of not adhering to the GRP principles, not only for the researchers guilty of committing one of the sins, yet also for psychology as a scientific field.
Výstupy z učení
Towards the end of the course, the students will be able to: a) build constructive arguments for good research practices and educate their peers and colleagues about the importance of these principles b) critically reflect on how different types of research pose different challenges of scientific rigor and ethics c) grasp fundamental statistical, philosophical, and conceptual mechanisms which constitute the backbone of good research practices d) understand that conducting statistical tests in exploratory research does not make any sense e) last but not least, be able to preregister (or write the first half of a registered report of) their own research

Výukové metody
lectures, practicals, discussions with the teachers and the invited guests, teacher's feedback on assignments, and pitch presentations with feedback from the lecturers and fellow classmates
Metody hodnocení
Each week (with the exception of the first one), students either partake in a short quiz that is graded on a 10-point scale. The MEDIAN grade from all the quizzes needs to be at least 5.5 to pass the course.
THE GOAL OF THE COURSE IS TO LEARN SOMETHING. THE GOAL OF THE COURSE IS NOT TO GET AN INSTANT 10 FROM EVERYTHING.

Informace učitele
Communication in the course is conducted primarily on the discussion forum in IS. This medium (hopefully) ensures that the lecturers can answer your queries in a quick and flexible way, and also that all people in the course can learn from the responses. Should you have a private matter to discuss, write the teachers a PM. The language of instruction is English.Please keep that in mind and try to refrain from speaking Czech. The course aims to be a safe space for practicing academic English, as well as scientific writing in English.
