The key insight here is that the negative observed association does not reflect the positive causal effect of open data on reproducibility. We would be completely wrong if we would draw the conclusion that open data decreases reproducibility. Especially if we would make policy recommendations, for instance around open data, it is critical that we do not make such mistakes.

We explain this and much more in greater detail in our preprint. This preprint is part of the PathOS project, and will also form an introductory chapter to our Open Science Indicator Handbook https://handbook.pathos-project.eu/. If you have any feedback or comments, we would love to hear from you!
