Assignment task: Effron and Raj publish research on the very topical but difficult-to-research issue of 'fake news'. Sophie Scott (2013) expresses the worry that a general requirement for studies to be pre-registered will threaten the exploratory aspects of psychological science.
What type of study or analyses could Effron and Raj have followed up on exploratively in their paper-either by running additional analyses or running another study?
