The Berkeley Initiative for Transparency in the Social Sciences (BITSS) was established in 2012 to strengthen the quality of social science research and evidence used for policy-making. The initiative aims to enhance the practices of economists, psychologists, political scientists, and other social scientists in ways that promote research transparency, reproducibility, and openness. On our Channel you can access our online course "Research Transparency Methods in the Social Sciences" based on a UC Berkeley course given by Dr. Edward Miguel, as well as videos from BITSS events such our Annual Meeting and Research Transparency Forum. Not sure where to start? Check out our interviews with researchers from across the social sciences about why transparency is important. You can find these in our "Why does Research Transparency Matter?" playlist.
