Naumann, Sandra; Byrne, Michelle L.; de la Fuente, Alethia; Harrewijn, Anita; Nugiel, Tehila; Rosen, Maya; van Atteveldt, Nienke; Matusz, Pawel J. – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2022
In cognitive neurosciences, fundamental principles of mental processes and functional brain organization have been established with highly controlled tasks and testing environments. Recent technical advances allowed the investigation of these functions and their brain mechanisms in naturalistic settings. The diversity in those approaches have been…

Stephen Gorard – Review of Education, 2024
This paper describes, and lays out an argument for, the use of a procedure to help groups of reviewers to judge the quality of prior research reports. It argues why such a procedure is needed, and how other existing approaches are only relevant to some kinds of research, meaning that a review or synthesis cannot successfully combine quality…

Konstantinos I. Bougioukas; Paschalis Karakasis; Konstantinos Pamporis; Emmanouil Bouras; Anna-Bettina Haidich – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
Systematic reviews (SRs) have an important role in the healthcare decision-making practice. Assessing the overall confidence in the results of SRs using quality assessment tools, such as "A MeaSurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews 2" (AMSTAR 2), is crucial since not all SRs are conducted using the most rigorous methods. In this…

Laura K. Allen; Arthur C. Grasser; Danielle S. McNamara – Grantee Submission, 2023
Assessments of natural language can provide vast information about individuals' thoughts and cognitive process, but they often rely on time-intensive human scoring, deterring researchers from collecting these sources of data. Natural language processing (NLP) gives researchers the opportunity to implement automated textual analyses across a…

Manolov, Rumen; Tanious, René; Fernández-Castilla, Belén – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
In science in general and in the context of single-case experimental designs, replication of the effects of the intervention within and/or across participants or experiments is crucial for establishing causality and for assessing the generality of the intervention effect. Specific developments and proposals for assessing whether an effect has been…

Bower, Kyle L. – American Journal of Evaluation, 2022
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the Five-Level Qualitative Data Analysis (5LQDA) method for ATLAS.ti as a way to intentionally design methodological approaches applicable to the field of evaluation. To demonstrate my analytical process using ATLAS.ti, I use examples from an existing evaluation of a STEM Peer Learning Assistant program.…

Cirkony, Connie; Rickinson, Mark; Walsh, Lucas; Gleeson, Jo; Salisbury, Mandy; Cutler, Blake – Educational Research, 2022
Background: Rapid reviews involve a streamlined approach to knowledge synthesis. They are used to identify high-quality evidence for the purpose of informing decisions and initiatives, completed over relatively short timeframes, and have been found to reach conclusions that do not differ extensively from full systematic reviews. Although common in…

Ibiagbani M. Max-Harry; Grace P. Counts; Craig S. Nunemaker; Nicholas B. Whitticar – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a valuable tool in various chemical and biological fields for investigating the presence and quantity of proteins of interest in given samples. The high importance of the assay makes it widely used in biological research and hence a crucial skill to master for up-and-coming scientists. A major…

Laura P. Naumann; Samantha N. Jewell; Erin L. Rider – Journal of Faculty Development, 2024
Prior studies indicate that faculty often struggle with Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) research due to limited knowledge of relevant research methodologies and data analysis techniques (Boshier, 2009; Kim et al., 2021; McKinney, 2006). Faculty developers at a teaching-intensive institution created an innovative, scaffolded model to…

We review ethnographic methods that allow researchers to assess distress in a culturally sensitive manner. We begin with an overview of standardized biomedical and psychological approaches to assessing distress cross-culturally. We then focus on literature describing the development of reliable and valid culturally sensitive assessment tools that…
