Concerns about the generalizability, veracity, and relevance of social psychological research often resurface within psychology. While many changes are being implemented to improve the integrity of published research and to clarify the publication record, less attention has been given to the questions of relevance. In this short commentary, I offer my perspective on questions of relevance and present some data from the website Reddit. The data show that people care greatly about psychological research—social psychology studies being among the highest upvoted on the subreddit r/science. However, upvotes on Reddit are unrelated to metrics used by researchers to gauge importance (e.g., impact factor, journal rankings and citations), suggesting a disconnect between what psychologists and lay-audiences may see as relevant. I interpret these data in light of the replication crisis and suggest that the spotlight on our field puts greater importance on the need for reform. Whether we like it or not, people care about, share, and use psychological research in their lives, which means we should ensure that our findings are reported accurately and transparently.
