Michiel van Oudheusden; Tessa Roedema; Willemine Willems – Ethnography and Education, 2025
In this article, we reflect on our experiences with teaching ethnographic skills and sensibilities to MSc students at a Dutch university. Using methods such as (self)observation, journaling and reflection, we highlight dilemmas (conceptual, practical, ethical) faced by students when doing ethnographic fieldwork and dilemmas that emerged in…

Austin C. Kozlowski; James Evans – Sociological Methods & Research, 2025
Large language models (LLMs), through their exposure to massive collections of online text, learn to reproduce the perspectives and linguistic styles of diverse social and cultural groups. This capability suggests a powerful social scientific application--the simulation of empirically realistic, culturally situated human subjects. Synthesizing…

Betül Baldan Babayigit; Ellen Boeren; Sharon Clancy; Zyra Evangelista; John Holford; Queralt Capsada-Munsech – International Journal of Lifelong Education, 2025
This paper investigates the methodological discrepancies underlying the measurement of adult learning and education (ALE) participation in the UK by focusing on four major surveys -- APiL, PIAAC, AES, and LFS. Grounded in the Total Survey Error (TSE) framework, we systematically examined the surveys' documentation and compared their definitions,…

Michalinos Zembylas – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2024
The aim of this article is to call for qualitative researchers in education and other human sciences to grapple with recent developments in trauma studies and engage in reconceptualizing their research practices so that they pay attention to the catastrophic effects of colonialism on individuals and communities. Joining other critics who have…

Bryan J. Duarte – Educational Studies: Journal of the American Educational Studies Association, 2024
Critical quantitative methods provide opportunities for Queer Theory to challenge, re-define, and re-claim the historically privileged research tradition. In this paper, I begin by summarizing the various binaries that oppress research and individuality. I then engage with Queer Theory and my own intersectional positionality to propose a nonbinary…

Reiber, Fabiola; Pope, Harrison; Ulrich, Rolf – Sociological Methods & Research, 2023
Randomized response techniques (RRTs) are useful survey tools for estimating the prevalence of sensitive issues, such as the prevalence of doping in elite sports. One type of RRT, the unrelated question model (UQM), has become widely used because of its psychological acceptability for study participants and its favorable statistical properties.…

Abdulrazaq A. Imam – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2023
Research in psychology and education tend to use large-N group designs that necessitate reporting of mean measures analyzed mostly with null hypothesis statistical testing (NHST), but sometimes with Bayesian, or the estimation approaches in inferential statistics. These approaches all render the average person or student as the the putative…

Deron Boyles – Philosophical Inquiry in Education, 2024
This exploratory essay considers how and why humanities research is excluded, co-opted, or othered in methods courses and methods course offerings for education research at an R1 institution. While not generalizable (ironically?), concerns have also been raised by philosophers of education that philosophy is not taught or is rarely taught as a…

Tomita, Kei; Alangari, Husa; Zhu, Meina; Ergulec, Fatih; Lachheb, Ahmed; Boling, Elizabeth – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2021
Studies of instructional design (ID) practices do not always highlight the inner workings of the research method and can leave readers without a clear understanding of how the study was actually carried out, particularly if it encompassed some complexity in process. As a team of researchers with different levels of scholarly expertise and…

Hennessy, Emily A.; Johnson, Blair T. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2020
Overlap in meta-reviews results from the use of multiple identical primary studies in similar reviews. It is an important area for research synthesists because overlap indicates the degree to which reviews address the same or different literatures of primary research. Current guidelines to address overlap suggest that assessing and documenting the…

Huang, Francis L. – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2020
Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is a statistical procedure commonly used in fields such as education and psychology. However, MANOVA's popularity may actually be for the wrong reasons. The large majority of published research using MANOVA focus on univariate research questions rather than on the multivariate questions that MANOVA is…

Laura Vernikoff; Emilie Mitescu Reagan – Review of Research in Education, 2024
Quantitative education research is often perceived to be "objective" or "neutral." However, quantitative research has been and continues to be used to perpetuate inequities; these inequities arise as both intended effects and unintended side effects of traditional quantitative research. In this review of the literature, we…

Demarest, Leila; Langer, Arnim – Sociological Methods & Research, 2022
While conflict event data sets are increasingly used in contemporary conflict research, important concerns persist regarding the quality of the collected data. Such concerns are not necessarily new. Yet, because the methodological debate and evidence on potential errors remains scattered across different subdisciplines of social sciences, there is…

Truscott, Stephen D.; Truscott, Diane M.; Washington, Michelle L.; McLendon, Katherine E. – Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation, 2022
The central purpose of school-based consultation is making psychological and educational knowledge accessible to teachers, parents, systems, and communities so that it becomes standard practice. Current research methods based on limited scientific paradigms have not adequately addressed that purpose. Applied research based on engineering is a…

Yeo-Teh, Nicole Shu Ling; Tang, Bor Luen – Research Ethics, 2022
Publication pressure has been touted to promote questionable research practices (QRP) and scientific or research misconduct (RM). However, logically attractively as it is, there is no unequivocal evidence for this notion, and empirical studies have produced conflicting results. Other than difficulties in obtaining unbiased empirical data, a direct…
