Heining Cham; Hyunjung Lee; Igor Migunov – Asia Pacific Education Review, 2024
The randomized control trial (RCT) is the primary experimental design in education research due to its strong internal validity for causal inference. However, in situations where RCTs are not feasible or ethical, quasi-experiments are alternatives to establish causal inference. This paper serves as an introduction to several quasi-experimental…

Fangxing Bai; Ben Kelcey; Yanli Xie; Kyle Cox – Journal of Experimental Education, 2025
Prior research has suggested that clustered regression discontinuity designs are a formidable alternative to cluster randomized designs because they provide targeted treatment assignment while maintaining a high-quality basis for inferences on local treatment effects. However, methods for the design and analysis of clustered regression…

Donald R. Bacon – Journal of Management Education, 2024
Hamdani et al. recently provided guidance for prospective authors on a wide range of issues encountered in quantitative research papers submitted for review at the "Journal of Management Education." Building on their insights, this essay focuses on experimental designs and provides more specific guidance and recommendations for…

Huibin Zhang; Zuchao Shen; Walter L. Leite – Journal of Experimental Education, 2025
Cluster-randomized trials have been widely used to evaluate the treatment effects of interventions on student outcomes. When interventions are implemented by teachers, researchers need to account for the nested structure in schools (i.e., students are nested within teachers nested within schools). Schools usually have a very limited number of…

Peter Z. Schochet – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2025
Random encouragement designs evaluate treatments that aim to increase participation in a program or activity. These randomized controlled trials (RCTs) can also assess the mediated effects of participation itself on longer term outcomes using a complier average causal effect (CACE) estimation framework. This article considers power analysis…

Karun Adusumilli; Francesco Agostinelli; Emilio Borghesan – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2024
This paper examines the scalability of the results from the Tennessee Student-Teacher Achievement Ratio (STAR) Project, a prominent educational experiment. We explore how the misalignment between the experimental design and the econometric model affects researchers' ability to learn about the intervention's scalability. We document heterogeneity…

Colin Foster – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2024
Educational researchers continue to polarize into 'qualitative' and 'quantitative' camps, with these terms often functioning as global identity markers, rather than as styles of research that are available to anyone. Many scholars have lamented the drawbacks of researchers being siloed into opposing, apparently incommensurable research paradigms,…

Hamdani, Maria Riaz; Wallin, Ann; Ashkanasy, Neal M.; Fenton-O'Creevy, Mark – Journal of Management Education, 2023
In this essay, we focus on methodological issues that reviewers and editors commonly encounter when evaluating empirical articles in scholarship of teaching and learning in management education. We organize our discussion around three stages--design, analysis, and reporting. The essay identifies which types of issues are likely to receive…

Peter Schochet – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Random encouragement designs are randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that test interventions aimed at increasing participation in a program or activity whose take up is not universal. In these RCTs, instead of randomizing individuals or clusters directly into treatment and control groups to participate in a program or activity, the randomization…

William Bosshardt; Amanda Jennings; Peter Davies – Journal of Economic Education, 2024
The authors of this article present arguments for why and how qualitative research should be used in economic education. These arguments recognize the nature of economics as a discipline and economics educators' current expertise and preferences. The authors have five goals: (i) clarifying how and why the use of qualitative research in economic…

John W. Creswell; Timothy C. Guetterman – Pearson, 2024
Balancing coverage of qualitative, quantitative and combined methods, "Educational Research" offers a truly inclusive and integrated overview of the processes involved in planning, conducting and evaluating research. It first examines the general steps in the research process and then details the procedures for conducting specific types…

Wendy Chan; Larry Vernon Hedges – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022
Multisite field experiments using the (generalized) randomized block design that assign treatments to individuals within sites are common in education and the social sciences. Under this design, there are two possible estimands of interest and they differ based on whether sites or blocks have fixed or random effects. When the average treatment…

Van Eck, Richard N. – Research in the Schools, 2021
Whether you believe you need a methodologist is very much dependent on academic training and your experience working with methodologists in pursuit of research. Methodologists are indispensable at all phases of the research process but perhaps nowhere more than at the beginning, when formulating your research questions and specifying what it is…

Köhler, Carmen; Hartig, Johannes; Naumann, Alexander – Educational Psychology Review, 2021
The article focuses on estimating effects in nonrandomized studies with two outcome measurement occasions and one predictor variable. Given such a design, the analysis approach can be to include the measurement at the previous time point as a predictor in the regression model (ANCOVA), or to predict the change-score of the outcome variable…

Bolinas, Julius Cesar – Design and Technology Education, 2022
Design literacy is an emerging research field that is gaining attention among scholars today. Credit goes to the growing acceptance of design thinking in various disciplines beyond design. Design literacy develops natural abilities in everyone to solve real-world, wicked problems by supporting the cognitive development of concrete (making things)…
