Linked knowledge from psychology as a reliable data source - what the PsychPorta search portal has to offer

Psychology faces a variety of challenges posed by digital progress - particularly the use of artificial intelligence, social changes brought about by right-wing populism and social media as well as the open-science movement with its demands for transparent research. The solutions and approaches to these challenges must be as diverse as the challenges themselves. A trustworthy information base built on high-quality data is a good starting point for meeting these challenges. The Leibniz Institute for Psychology (ZPID) operates various databases in which numerous research objects from German-speaking countries are collected, enriched with metadata, and stored for the long term. In order to bring these diverse research objects together in one central location, an open knowledge graph was developed that maps the ZPID databases in a structured semantic network. This allows a representation of relationships between publications, authors, research data, analysis code, preprints, preregistrations, psychometric instruments, and much more, in human- and machine-readable form. The PsychPorta search portal was developed to make this knowledge graph searchable for users. The search portal is open access and offers an intuitive interface. Relevant open-science information of the research objects is highlighted, increasing transparency and reuse of research output. Attractive use cases for analyzing the rich metadata provided may arise, particularly for researchers in the field of metascience. This talk will introduce the functions of PsychPorta and illustrate uses. It will also provide an outlook on planned new features.
