Transparency in the reporting of empirical studies is foundational to a credible knowledge base. Higher levels of transparency, in addition to clarity in writing, also make research more accessible to a diverse readership. Previous research reviewed how transparently reported qualitative, interview-based, studies were in contemporary technology…

Purposefully publishing a fraudulent scholarly paper is considered research misconduct and never tolerated in academia. True scholars work hard to create and publish work in legitimate ways. However, fraudulent publishers--companies that solicit and quickly publish research papers without review or quality assurances that evaluate, judge, and…

Rycroft-Smith, Lucy; Stylianides, Andreas J. – Review of Education, 2022
The field of knowledge brokering in education--aiming to better connect research to practice--is currently emerging. Evidence of a community dissonance between researchers and practitioners in education suggests that models of knowledge brokering that consider the perspectives and priorities of both groups are required. It is also a priority to…

Because many websites claim to provide information about evidence-based practices (EBPs), consumers must know the information and practices are based upon quality research. Practitioners may intend to locate trustworthy online sources providing EBPs, but if those sources are not easy to navigate and lack implementation resources (i.e., are…
