Most existing solutions to the current replication crisis in science address only the factors stemming from specific poor research practices. We introduce a novel mechanism that leverages the experts' predictive abilities to analyze the root causes of replication failures. It is backed by the principle that the most accurate predictor is the most…

Purpose: Comparative data of autism-sensitive standardized measures of emotion regulation and lability, describing percentage change over time for populations of young autistic children, are currently publicly unavailable. We propose publication of such data as a support for future therapeutic intervention studies. Methods: We generate and present…

Background: This study examines the engagement of knowledge users in knowledge mobilisation (KMb) research on Canadian K-12 teaching and education policy. Research on and around KMb has grown in the decade since this field was first assessed comprehensively. Thus, it is timely to re-evaluate if current knowledge producer-user relationships in KMb…

Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are now a popular tool to inform causal inferences. We discuss how DAGs can also be used to encode theoretical assumptions about nonprobability samples and survey nonresponse and to determine whether population quantities including conditional distributions and regressions can be identified. We describe sources of…

Including women in research and collecting and disaggregating data on sex is an ethical imperative. However, increasingly gender identity is being prioritised over sex in data collection and language which has ethical implications. In this paper, the authors share their experiences as study participants; a health consumer advocate, patient…

"Court-involved" students -- those who are incarcerated, on probation, in foster care, in residential treatment facilities, or have concurrent adjudications -- retain their full educational rights under federal and state laws. They also face many educational challenges, as they are often highly mobile, have concentrated needs, and may…

Trust serves an important purpose in organizations composed of numerous, specialized, interdependent roles. Supporting confidence that individuals will dutifully fulfill the responsibilities of those roles without causing harm to the organization, trust enables coordinated task execution across multiple roles and facilitates information exchange…

State regulators are the central authority in higher-education oversight, charged with ensuring consumer protection and quality assurance within the regulatory triad. Yet gaps remain in the understanding of regulatory renewal processes, their real-world implementation, and the capacity challenges these agencies face. To address this, State Higher…

High-quality feedback requires understanding of a student's work, insights into what concepts would help them improve, and language that matches the preferences of the specific teaching team. While Large Language Models (LLMs) can generate coherent feedback, adapting these responses to align with specific teacher preferences remains an open…

This paper emphasizes the divergences in quantitative and qualitative methodological approaches when exploring trust relationships in school units. We focus on how participants responded and how the results were interpreted. This study, based on such design, questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews to understand trust among teachers and…

This documentation is for the Provisional File Version 1a of the School-Level Finance Survey (SLFS) for school year (SY) 2021-22, fiscal year 2022 (FY 22) conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). It contains a brief description of the data collection in conjunction with information required to understand and access the…

This Case Study examines the challenges of positionality in researching female leadership in education. It is based on research that investigated the leadership styles that female school principals in the United Arab Emirates adopted based on the influence of female gender and national culture. The research adopted a mixed-method approach and was…

The purpose of this case study is to illustrate how we practiced narrative métissage, an Indigenous research methodology, as non-Indigenous researchers. We engaged in an arts-based collaborative autoethnography to explore our growing understanding of scholarly impact using various concepts from transformative learning. In this case study, we…

Realist evaluations, a form of theory-driven evaluation, aim to explain how, why, for whom, and to what extent a complex health intervention works (or does not work). Realist evaluations are often "methods-flexible" and encourage the appropriate use of a range of evidence types that provide explanatory value. However, there is a lack of…

Biochemistry lecture and lab courses often contain enzyme kinetics as part of the curriculum, but do not regularly focus on interpreting the kinetic constants. Similarly, as we implement course-based undergraduate research experiences in our lab courses, we encourage our students to produce publication-quality images and determine the enzymatic…
