Research Transparency Check

In this interactive session, we invite participants to try out and give feedback on Research Transparency Check, new software providing a quick assessment of the transparency of research reports. The software determines the presence of information on criteria of research transparency, and, for a set of criteria for which ground truth is available, the accuracy of the information in the research report. The assessments feed a dashboard providing a colourful overview of the level of transparency. Comparisons with best practices produce a detailed set of actionable suggestions for improvements in the research report. We discuss priorities for the development of new software modules.
