ABSTRACT The study of identity development has changed a great deal in the last couple of decades. The purpose of this essay is to reflect on these changes, what they mean for the study of identity, and what they mean for the field moving forward. On the one hand, research on identity has greatly increased in depth, breadth, and rigor. On the other hand, however, current research practices in the field serve as a serious barrier to generating cumulative knowledge. The solution proposed for dealing with these challenges is to embrace the open science movement, which consists of a set of principles and behaviors that promote transparent, credible, reproducible, and accessible science. The four principles of transparency, credibility, reproducibility, and accessibility serve as a guide for understanding specific behaviors to implement, and thus improve research in the field.

身份研究开放科学运动的前景

摘要 在过去的几十年里，身份发展的研究发生了很大的变化。本文的目的是反思这些变化，它们对身份研究的意义，以及它们对这个领域向前发展的意义。一方面，对身份的研究在深度、广度和严谨性上都有了很大的提高。然而，另一方面，该领域当前的研究实践是产生累积知识的严重障碍。为应对这些挑战而提出的解决方案是拥抱开放科学运动，它由一系列促进透明、可信、可重复和可访问的科学的原则和行为组成。透明度、可信度、可重复性和可访问性四项原则可作为理解要实施的特定行为的指南，从而改进该领域的研究。补充材料可在 https://osf.io/mszjt 获得。
