## **Study overview** ## --- The goal of this study was to gauge and understand what parts of preregistration templates qualitative researchers would find helpful and informative. For the final template see the [OSF wiki][1]. Preregistration forms already exist for different quantitative study types (e.g. clinicaltrials.gov, osf.io, aspredicted.org). Yet to foster the credibility of qualitative research, different questions should be asked. At this point, there is no consensus on which questions would be most meaningful and relevant. **Research protocol** You can find our registration and research protocol [here][2]. **Examples** You can find some example qualitative preregistrations [here][3]. **Who we are** This study is being organized by researchers who wrote on the topic of qualitative preregistration or pre-analysis plans for qualitative research who are collaborating with the Center for Open Science, a non-profit organization based in Charlottesville, VA, USA whose mission is to increase the openness, integrity, and reproducibility of research.
