Very useful set of guidelines for conducting social psychology lab experiments by @eddiehj.bsky.social, @davidamodio.bsky.social, and colleagues. Preprint: doi.org/10.31234/osf... Few quotes follow…
Table 1
Summary Guidelines for Conducting Lab Experiments in Motivation and Emotion
___________________________________________________________________________
Pre-Manipulation Setup
•	Consider physical environment on the way to the lab room
•	Consider physical environment of lab room (e.g., cameras, mirror, room size, social)
•	Create a plausible cover story
•	Be mindful of the psychological state of participants at the start of experiment

Experimenters/Confederates
•	Ensure consistency between multiple experimenters/confederates
•	Compare effect of multiple experimenters statistically
•	Keep appearance/clothing consistent
•	Be cognizant of informal/formal style of interacting
•	Note differences in physical attractiveness
•	Track emotion and personality variables of experimenters
•	Keep blind to condition

Independent Variables (IVs)
•	Use a strong IV – aim for a psychological sledgehammer
•	Be careful that IV is not so strong that participants ignore DV
•	Ensure multiple IVs are similar in strength
•	Check effectiveness of manipulation and appreciate its complexity
•	Pre-test to insure IVs are the same psychologically in different times and places
•	Avoid experimenter demand
•	Avoid confounds

Dependent Variables (DVs)
•	Create sensitive DVs
•	Consider challenges with self-reported effort 
•	Consider challenges with self-reported emotion
•	Be aware that the order of presentation of variables might influence results
•	Pretest

Applying Guidelines to Replications
•	Consider the benefits of conceptual replications for theory testing
•	Select studies for replication that have a reasonable chance of being replicated
•	Note that expectations of non-replication influence researchers and outcomes
•	Use exact original method when replicating a specific effect
•	Test correlations that logically follow from experimental hypotheses if possible
•	Insure participating labs in projects follow instructions of the study coordinators

Data Management
•	Take steps to avoid errors i…
