Psi Chi is announcing a new call for NICE: CROWD proposals!

PSI CHI The International Honor Society in Psychology

Psi Chi’s Network for International Collaborative Exchange (NICE)
invites you to submit a research proposal for cross-cultural studies!

The NICE is concerned with the facilitation of cross-cultural research amongst Psi Chi members and other researchers both nationally and internationally. A subcomponent of NICE, NICE: CROWD, will include a shortlist of research questions, with the goal of generating data from many locations using the same research protocol. CROWD offers a plethora of benefits to researchers such as: reducing the burden of having to solicit large numbers of participants, increasing the diversity of study samples, providing researchers accessible materials and protocols, and providing a convenient platform for faculty to engage students in the scientific research process!
 
Members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
 
You can submit a research question to NICE: CROWD by following these steps:

1.    Come up with a cross-cultural research question you would like to see answered! Please note that with COVID-19 restrictions, we are interested in proposals that align with local health guidelines and IRB guidance (i.e., does not require in-person meetings).

2.    Create an Open Science Framework (OSF) account—this is the hub for all things NICE! (Note: if your country does not allow access to OSF, you are still welcome to submit a completed pre-registration template via email!)
       a.    https://osf.io/register/
       b.    Signing up just requires providing a name, e-mail address, and a password for your OSF account.
       c.    Email the nice chair with your interest in applying to NICE: CROWD with your OSF username
       d.    NICE will add you to our main OSF page.

3.    Fill out the Word document version of the OSF pre-registration template.
