Overview
This guide is for editors, reviewers, and authors of APA submissions, to help them understand APA initiatives for open and transparent research, such as the TOP guidelines. The guiding principle is improving scientific rigour and increasing the transparency and accessibility of research; adjust any of the guidance for specific topics or circumstances in the service of those goals.
The guide is in draft form. We are starting with guidance for editors and authors. We will be adding guidance for reviewers soon. We welcome feedback and suggestions for further guidance.
