Abstract

In this open science era, psychology demands researchers be transparent in their research practices. In turn, researchers might ask if journal editors are being equally transparent in their editorial practices. Editor bias is when editors fail to be fair and impartial in their handling of articles. Editor bias can arise because of identity-who authors are-or because of content-what authors write. Proposed solutions to editor bias include masking author identity and increasing editor diversity. What is needed is greater transparency. By being more transparent, editors would be in a better position to encourage others to embrace open science.

心理学开放科学时代的编辑偏见与透明度。

在这个开放的科学时代，心理学要求研究人员的研究行为透明化。反过来，研究人员可能会问，期刊编辑的编辑行为是否同样透明。编辑偏见是指编辑在处理文章时未能做到公平公正。编辑偏见的产生可能是因为身份--作者是谁，也可能是因为内容--作者写了什么。针对编辑偏见提出的解决方案包括掩盖作者身份和增加编辑的多样性。我们需要的是更大的透明度。通过提高透明度，编辑可以更好地鼓励他人接受开放科学。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, 版权所有）。
