This article reflects on a new kind of registered report (RR) that replicated the work of an early career researcher. The research items targeted in this RR were peer‐reviewed, cross‐sectional, dyadic studies to which the first author of this RR had contributed. The findings being replicated are not noteworthy for their prestige or representativeness of the wider field. Instead, this method of replication may have several benefits and less desirable qualities for the researcher and research team whose work is being replicated, for science more broadly, and for relationship science specifically, reviewed herein. The authors hope that this reflection inspires researchers to improve upon their methodology by incorporating replication of their work early and often into their own research process.

对复制二元横断面研究的注册报告的思考

本文反映了一种新型的注册报告 (RR)，它复制了早期职业研究人员的工作。本 RR 中针对的研究项目是本 RR 的第一作者参与的同行评审、横断面、二元研究。被复制的研究结果并不因其在更广泛领域的声望或代表性而值得注意。相反，这种复制方法对于正在复制其工作的研究人员和研究团队，对于更广泛的科学，特别是对于关系科学，可能有几个好处和不太理想的品质，在此回顾。作者希望这种反思能激励研究人员改进他们的方法，尽早并经常将他们工作的复制纳入他们自己的研究过程。
