Scientific service and infrastructure project
PI(s): Prof. Dr. Shravan Vasishth & Prof. Dr. Ralf Engbert
This project provides support to the CRC by advising other projects on experiment design and statistical data analysis, helping projects to preregister their primary statistical analyses using the Open Science Foundation, and helping with the data management and archiving. This is achieved through four work packages that (1) provide support to the CRC in optimizing experiment design and analysis, (2) provide statistical education within the CRC, (3) assist in developing and maintaining a data repository to ensure preregistration, open access of data and code, and reproducibility, and (4) develop new statistical methods, computational tools, and software packages needed for the CRC, which will be made available in the public domain.
