📄 "To Be FAIR: Theory Specification Needs an Update"
New paper in Perspectives on Psychological Science: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17456916251401850
Semantic versioning of theories? Citable theory objects that are reproducible and published independently of classical papers?
Van Lissa et al. (2025) argue that psychological theories need clearer and more systematic specification. The paper adapts the #FAIRprinciples (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) – well known from open data – to the way theories are defined, documented, and communicated.
