The orchestrator for a Psychological Science submission. The journal's two defining constraints are a very tight word format and strong open-science requirements — the router makes sure both are handled from the start, then sends the user to the matching skill.

|---|---|---|
| Completed empirical study | Research Article | main pipeline below; mind the 2,000-word format |
| Prospective design, no results yet | Registered Report (Stage 1) | go to psci-study-design + psci-review-process early |
| Stage-1 accepted, now have results | Registered Report (Stage 2) | psci-data-analysis → psci-writing-style |
| Confirmatory test on existing data | Registered Report with Existing Data | psci-study-design (declare data provenance) |
| Short critique/reply to a published paper | Commentary / Reply (≤ 1,000 words) | psci-literature-positioning |
Short Reports and standalone Preregistered Direct Replications are no longer accepted — fit your replication/extension into a Research Article or a Registered Report.

For Registered Reports, the Stage 1 package (theory + design + analysis plan) is reviewed before
data — pull study-design and review-process forward.
A team has two preregistered attention studies (N = 240; N = 300), open data, and an R2 asking for power and a replication. The router walks them:
Type: Research Article (results in hand, internal replication present).
Entry: not idea-stage → skip topic-selection; they are at analysis/exhibits.
Route: data-analysis (effect sizes + CIs + disclosure)
→ tables-figures (dot/CI figure, embedded)
→ writing-style (fit Intro+Discussion ≤ 2,000)
→ open-science-and-transparency (DOIs + Transparency Statement)
→ submission (preflight) ; on R&R → rebuttal.
Flag: Transparency Statement must sit between Intro and Methods — verify
current placement against the journal's submission guidelines.
| What the author says | Stage | Route to |
|---|---|---|
| "Is this even right for the journal?" | fit | psci-topic-selection |
| "My intro is 1,400 words and still growing" | format | psci-writing-style |
| "Reviewer says single underpowered study" | design/analysis | psci-study-design + psci-data-analysis |
| "Where does the Transparency Statement go?" | transparency | psci-open-science-and-transparency |
| "I have an R&R" | revision | psci-rebuttal |
| "Should I preregister before running?" | design | psci-study-design (consider RR Stage 1) |

Registered Report Stage 1 first — the route matters before data exist.psci-open-science-and-transparency to the end; deposits and DOIs should be built early so
the Transparency Statement is drafted from live identifiers, not promised at acceptance.【Stage】idea / positioning / theory / design / analysis / exhibits / writing / transparency / review / submit / rebut
