Open Science and Epistemic Pluralism - by Mark Rubin

"The December 2022 issue of the journal Industrial and Organizational Psychology includes a very interesting discussion of the pros and cons of open science. There’s a target article titled “Open science, closed doors: The perils and potential of open science for research in practice” (Guzzo et al., 2022) and nine commentaries on this article. You can find all 10 papers here.

In this post, I focus on Andrea Bazzoli’s (2022) excellent commentary: “Open science and epistemic pluralism: A tale of many perils and some opportunities.” Many thanks to Andrea for drawing my attention to his work on Twitter. I elaborate on some of his points with my own thoughts inspired by Sabina Leonelli’s (2022) recent work."
