Addressing Questionable Research Practices (QRPs) is not about policing a minority of researchers behaving badly, but instead is a central part of our identity as a community seeking to create, and promote, a culture of research integrity.

@tedpavlic I'm sure it's not the intention - indeed they add a cautionary note - but this kind of advice leads to HARKing & other questionable research practices that massage research into a neat narrative.
It's the antithesis of #OpenScience practices like #RegisteredReports. You should start with a research question, a summary of what is known, & then the methods. Post-hoc theorising must be declared. It keeps you honest.
