This is the idea of coming up with your entire research study, methods and all, getting a journal to agree to publish it regardless of results.

The benefit of a registered report is that it allows researchers to have their study design and methodology peer-reviewed before they conduct their research. This can help to prevent issues such as p-hacking, cherry-picking results, or other forms of bias. It also ensures that all results are published, not just those that are statistically significant, which helps to combat the problem of publication bias. Additionally, registered reports can increase transparency in the research process and improve the quality of published research. #researchlandscape
