Adversarial Collaboration: The Next Science Reform

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Ideological and Political Bias in Psychology

Abstract

The behavioral sciences have taken a substantial reputational hit over the past decade. Some highly publicized findings have failed to replicate, and many highly touted “science-based” interventions have failed to produce promised positive social change—even when massive efforts are dedicated to making them work. We contend that the ideological homogeneity of the social sciences has entrenched certain scientific orthodoxies and taboos that have protected weak ideas from rigorous scrutiny and contributed to the replication crisis. Open science practices, although a big step in the right direction, leave many researcher degrees of freedom on the table that can bias methodological decisions and research conclusions. Adversarial collaborations, a methodological procedure in which disagreeing scholars work together to resolve their empirical disputes, are the next necessary science reform for addressing lingering weaknesses in social scientific norms. Adversarial collaborations will further minimize false positives, expedite scientific corrections, stimulate progress for stalemated scientific debates, and ultimately improve the quality of social scientific outputs.
