28	Transparency / Open Science	Was a time-stamped pre-registration / study protocol (in the case of Registered Reports; = registration of hypotheses, methods, and/or analyses of a scientific study before it is conducted) posted in an independent, third-party registry (e.g., OSF)?

40		Please explain and provide the links (if there are several links, use semicolons ";" to separate them)
42		Does the __pre-registration / study protocol__ fully describe the intended statistical analysis for each research question? (This may require, for example, information about the sidedness of the tests, inference criteria, corrections for multiple testing, model selection criteria, prior distributions etc.)

52		Did you subject any data to the pre-registered analyses prior to the in-principle acceptance (other than pilot data included at Stage 1)?
53		Please explain how/why you subjected data to the pre-registered analyses prior to the in-principle acceptance (other than pilot data included at Stage 1)
61	Transparency / Open Science (continued)	Reporting Standards / Design and Analysis Transparency The following questions concern the principle of transparent and full reporting and thus should be implemented by each empirical study.

63		Does the manuscript fully describe the _measures of interest_ (e.g., pro-environmental attitude) and their _operationalizations_ (e.g., a questionnaire measuring pro-environmental attitude)?
64		What kind of data and analysis does your submission present?
65		Please describe the kind of data and analysis used in your submission
66		###Reporting standards for quantitative work
67	Quantitative studies	Does the manuscript describe the rationale for the sample size used (e.g., an a priori power analysis)?
68		Were any observations / participants / data excluded from the analyses?
69		Does the manuscript report the total number of excluded observations?
70		Does the manuscript report all data exclusion criteria?
71		Does the manuscript report all levels of all independent variables (manipulations / conditions / experimental groups)?
72		Does the manuscript report all levels of all measures / dependent variables that were analysed for this article’s target research question?
73		Does the manuscript report estimates related to the reliability of measures (e.g., internal consistency, interrater reliability)?
74		Does the manuscript report basic descriptive statistics of all variables that are used in the analyses (i.e. the number of cases, cell means, and standard deviations) for the total sample and for each subgroup (e.g., cells in experimental designs)?
75		Does the manuscript report all exact p values, effect sizes, and 95% CIs for inferential tests?
76		###Reporting standards for qualitative work
77	Qualitative studies	Does the manuscript provide the general context for the study (when data were collected, sites of data collection)? If relevant for the study, this may include further information (e.g., geographical / historical / cultural information; power structure; norms; economic conditions; researchers’ perspectives).
78		Does the manuscript provide a rationale for how they recruited (e.g., face-to-face, email) and selected their study participants (e.g., purposive or convenience sampling)?
79		Does the manuscript describe the rationale for decision to halt data collection (e.g., saturation)?
80		Does the manuscript report key details about the data collection process (form of data collection such as interviews, questionnaires, media, observation; interview guide, duration, extensiveness of engagement)?
81		Does the manuscript report what data audio/visual recording methods, field notes, or transcription processes were used?
82		Does the manuscript report key details for the data analysis process (analytic process, choices in relation to the study goals, coding strategy)?
83		Does the manuscript demonstrate that findings are grounded in the evidence (e.g., using quotes, excerpts, or descriptions)?
84		###Reporting standards for mixed methods work
85	Mixed methods studies	Does the manuscript describe the type of mixed methods design (e.g., convergent design, explanatory sequential design, and exploratory sequential design) using a major reference in the field?
86		Does the manuscript provide a rationale or justification for the need to collect both qualitative and quantitative data and the added value of integrating the results?
87		Do the Methods and Results sections devote separate sections to each analysis (quantitative, qualitative, mixed)?
88		Does the Result section indicate how the qualitative and quantitative results were “mixed” or integrated (e.g., discussion; tables of joint displays; graphs)?
89		Do the Methods and Results sections (of the manuscript consistently mirror the type of mixed methods design in terms of sequence (i.e., if quantitative or qualitative came first)?
90		These requirements may not be applicable to all research designs and studies. If you believe your study should be exempted from a reporting requirement, please explain why.
91		If you believe that a different reporting standard is more suitable for your manuscript (see <a href="https://apastyle.apa.org/jars/jars-quant-decision-flowchart.pdf" target="_blank">APA JARS</a>), please let us know which one you used
