        Subject: New Diamond Open Access Journal "Replication Research (R2)"

Dear colleagues,

Conducting independent replication and reproduction studies of past research
findings has gained increasing importance in recent years, particularly in light
of the interdisciplinary replication crisis affecting many research fields. For
this reason, we have recently founded a new interdisciplinary journal,
“Replication Research (R2)”, which is now open for submissions. Accepted formats
include all types of replications, reproductions, and conceptual contributions
on the topic of replication and reproduction research.

Thanks to a multidisciplinary team of replication experts, we accept submissions
from multiple disciplines: Digital Humanities, Experimental Philosophy,
Geoscience, Linguistics, Management Sciences, Marketing, Medicine, Mental
Health, Metascience, Neuroimaging, Neuroscience, Political Science, Psychology,
Qualitative & Quantitative Research Methods.

We are aware that publishing replications and reproductions in this area can be
challenging, which is why we have created a transparent, free, and high-quality
journal.

The journal is owned by the Münster Center for Open Science and FORRT and thus
follows an open-science philosophy, operating under a sustainable diamond open-
access model (free-to-read, free-to-publish, authors retain the rights to their
article), embedding the Transparency and Openness Promotion (TOP) principles
within its journal guidelines, and enabling PCI (peer community in) review
compatibility.

If you would like to submit your research, check out our submission guidelines
(http://replicationresearch.org) or send a pre-submission inquiry to
contact@replicationresearch.org. 

As methods for reproductions and replications are emerging across fields, we offer
multiple types of support for authors, including manuscript templates and a
replication handbook.

You are welcome to forward this text to anyone who may be interested. For more
information, see the journal page
replicationresearch.org<http://replicationresearch.org/> or get in touch!

Sincerely,
Lukas Röseler (Editor-in-Chief) & Miriam Müller (Editorial Assistant)
