In this editorial, the author gives voice to three principles that he hopes will influence the articles that appear in American Psychologist: The scholarship should be rigorous, it should attend to both basic and applied considerations, and authors should be open and transparent in the reporting of how the research was conducted. The author says he would be remiss if he didn’t also mention the importance of free and open inquiry. Progress in science depends on an atmosphere that permits—indeed, promotes—original thinking. A discipline, like psychology, that hopes to flourish by expanding the reach of its explanations must encourage divergent thinking and the thoughtful and respectful exchange of ideas while meeting criteria for excellent scholarship.

2022 年开篇社论。

在这篇社论中，作者提出了三个原则，他希望这将影响出现在美国心理学家的文章：学术应该严谨，应该兼顾基本和应用考虑，作者应该在报告中公开透明研究是如何进行的。作者说，如果他不提及自由和公开调查的重要性，他将是失职。科学的进步取决于允许——实际上是促进——独创性思维的氛围。一门学科，如心理学，希望通过扩大其解释的范围而蓬勃发展，必须鼓励发散性思维以及深思熟虑和尊重的思想交流，同时满足优秀学术的标准。
