We are delighted to announce that Journal of Vocational Behavior (JVB) has published its first two Results-Masked Reviewed (RMR) articles.
What is it? RMR articles aim to ensure we publish important research regardless of whether the results are positive or negative. They address a number of questionable practices including selective reporting of results, P-Hacking, HARKing (Hypothesizing After Results are Known), and publication bias.
How is the peer review process different? The paper is sent for review without the results, discussion or conclusion and reviewers are asked to initially evaluate the article, and to recommend a decision based on the hypothesis, methodology and proposed data analysis only.
Take a look at the articles:
· Looking forward: Career identity formation and the temporal orientations of young Australians
· Understanding typologies of feedback environment perceptions: A latent profile investigation
About JVB:
