Registered reports in principle acceptance (peer reviewed)

*in principle accepted registered reports are articles accepted for publication in peer reviewed journals before any data were collected. When data is collected, and the results and discussion written up, they undergo a second round of review, but publication is guaranteed unless the authors did not follow the accepted procedure.
