Abstract
Methodology serves an essential role in advancing psychological science. However, meta-science research points to a leaky translational pipeline in which substantive research often fails to utilize recommended methodological practices. Various explanations for this problem include valuing the development of methods over methodology (making tools over using tools), incentives for methodological research, incentives for promoting pedagogy in methodology, an insufficient number of quantitative methodologists in the discipline, and scarcity of resources for substantive researchers seeking more advanced methodological training. Policy makers might consider several recommendations that could mitigate extant leaks in the translational pipeline.
