More on in research.

When we can identify the theoretical stance of researchers (& by implication, their preferred findings), by the way the study was designed, our science is in trouble.

All methods encourage some kinds of findings over others. Sometimes it’s as obvious as ‘confirm what I think I already know’ vs ‘make room to hear things we had not thought of before’.

The first path makes for solid careers. Critiquing the methods used by people who are comfortable in their niche does not make you popular.

Struggling to maintain consistency and clarity in your qualitative #research?
The #codebook is your essential artifact!
A well-structured codebook acts as the central guide for your analysis.

Has “many analyst” #research been done on quaLitative #data?

How much do *independent* teams of qualitative coders/analyzers converge/diverge when trying to answer one question with one dataset?

Suggestions (and self-promotion) welcome.

Preregistering your research is a great way to boost transparency and rigor. But which template is right for your study?

Join us on March 27 at 11 AM ET for a webinar on choosing the right preregistration template! We’ll explore OSF’s templates for different study types—including experiments, systematic reviews, qualitative methods, and more.

How do you ensure a well-rounded perspective in your #Research? By integrating multiple theoretical perspectives, Theory Triangulation helps you enhance validity, overcome biases, and develop a more holistic understanding of complex phenomena. Whether through conceptual integration, comparative analysis, or theoretical synergy, combining frameworks strengthens your study’s robustness.

Please help my research methods students collect data exploring how mindfulness affects attitudes. They only have a few more days to collect and it would be awesome if this got the boosts to help them.

Help out Research Methods students who are replicating published psychology studies. They only have a short time to collect data and I'd love for them to have big enough sample sizes for their results to mean something!

The spreadsheet has all the studies they are running. If you can, take a couple of them. Boosts are appreciated!

How transparent is your #Research process?
An #AuditTrail is your research roadmap, a detailed account of every decision, method, and reflection. By documenting your process from design to analysis, you enhance the transparency and credibility of your work. It’s a cornerstone of #QualitativeResearch, promoting #Trustworthiness and enabling others to evaluate and build on your findings.

OK #psychology folks! It’s that time of year again - I’m looking for published papers to assign for my #criticalthinking #researchmethods course. Papers need to have flaws students can spot, bonus points for #opendata. Please RT for visibility! (Cross-posted to bluesky)

Why isn't there a kind of BIDS for educational slides... so everyone of us could just add the slides on the topic one loves and has expertise on... and magically we all would have the next lectures ready

New #AcademicYear - New #introduction

I am interested in health-related quality of life
#HRQL #Psychometrics

I teach #ResearchMethods modules in the #DundeeUni #ProfDoc
#Interdisciplinary #RD62001 #RD62002

I convene our School's #ResearchEthics committee

My terms as academic editor of 'Quality of Life Research' come to an end, and I am mulling over roles and sense in #AcademicPublishing
#NightshiftEditor

There may be some occasional #Deutsch #Svenska #Gaidhlig and local stuff in my feed.

Bayesian Theory, known for its effectiveness in probability and statistics, is increasingly applied to historical research. Updating the probability of historical events as new evidence is considered offers a structured approach to understanding the past. This method allows historians to quantify uncertainty and make more informed conclusions.

Getting once again to one of my highlights of the academic year:

Marking submissions to our #interdisciplinary #ProfDoc module
"Applied #ResearchMethods as Strategic Tools"

Given the different professional backgrounds of the students, these are always a great endpoint of a module I enjoy teaching.
