Call for Contributors: Data Dictionary Paper

[Erin Buchanan]

Hey guys,

A while back I posted about our group who was working on a tutorial paper (current target AMPPs but have some other ideas if they don't want it). We've finished updating the paper and would still like to offer for people to contribute from the group. A few of you commented before, and I also wanted to see if you wanted to be added (if so, add your names on the doc!).

The current plan is for me to push a few updates to the DD Creator App so that you can save JSON formatted in schema.org style, as that's what appears to be the consensus from the group. I am hoping to submit the paper in the next few weeks, so let me put a deadline of commenting/suggestions by Feb 3rd.

Please let me know if you have questions!

Hi Erin, 

I have been having some back and forth with Melissa about Meta-Psychology (where I'm editor-in-chief) being "beta testers" for Psych Data Standards. In short, we would require it and also provide support for authors. One of our aims is to support the community by being early adopters of new standards and innovations in publishing, to seek out new things and boldly (oh sorry that's Star Trek...)

I haven't been so active in this group, but I'm following it very closely with that in mind. This tutorial will be extremely useful to us, and I would like to make it an official tutorial for submission to Meta-Psychology in the future. 

If it's ok I would like to join in on this, and provide comments based on this perspective. I have some serious skin in the game for this tutorial being good as I'm going to be the personal IT support for all papers if it's not clear enough ;)

I hope AMPPs will appreciate this timely piece, but I always try to do some advertising for this FAIR (as in free) OA journal:
