Summary slides for “Reproducibility for Everyone” at #PlantBio18 pre- and post-workshop surveys

  • 167 registered participants
  • 62 registered participants filled in the pre-workshop series
  • 61 signed in attendees
  • 31 signed in attendees filled in the post survey

  • The following slides show the visual representation of all results. Question #3 and #7 and Question #7 of the pre- and post-survey are qualitative questions. The respective full answers can be found in the full spreadsheet of results.

Graphs of pre-survey results in order: Question #2

Better and more detailed methods, description of performed analysis, and record keeping

less pressure to publish (reach p < 0.05)

Fewer incentives to be first rather than right

Better 'wet lab' reagent sharing e.g. plasmids, antibodies, etc.

Better code sharing

More publicly available data including meta-data

increased statistical power in experiments

increased statistical power in experiments

‘increased statistical power in experiments’ is present twice as this option was slightly rephrased too late, once the survey was already being collected.
