What are people's go-to, stable diamond #OpenAccess journals for general or clinical psychology, which publish sample/methods description/overview papers? I have a study with a lot of moving parts, can't squeeze everything into one main paper & want a nice overview of the measures, procedures, etc.

Due to an issue with OSF, PsyArXiv is currently only able to "accept" manuscripts. If papers need to be revised before acceptance - for instance, due to not meeting our server's policies (blog.psyarxiv.com/about-psyarx...), we will hold them in our queue until the OSF implements a fix.

Posting to request any examples people have seen of AI disclosure statements in recent papers that are not just "grammatical edits" or "detect errors in code" - I know there's a lag in publications but surely some folks here are writing them already or seeing them in papers?

My conclusion from this is that preprint servers (and journals!) are entering a new phase of cat and mouse trying to contain AI slop (n.b., not mundane AI use, but nonsense generation). Peer review as a filter scarcely does better to ID this stuff. We need new & better tools to ID trustworthy works.
