Briony Carlin; Tina Sikka; Peter Hopkins; Laura Braunholtz; Louise Mair; Zarah Pattison – Studies in Higher Education, 2024
Fieldwork is an important component of data collection in environmental sciences and other related disciplines. Sensitive to the ways in which field based environmental sciences (FBES) research is often unsafe and lacks inclusivity, we explore findings from a mixed methods study that identified barriers to inclusion and overlooked risks to safety…

Hongwen Guo; Matthew S. Johnson; Daniel F. McCaffrey; Lixong Gu – ETS Research Report Series, 2024
The multistage testing (MST) design has been gaining attention and popularity in educational assessments. For testing programs that have small test-taker samples, it is challenging to calibrate new items to replenish the item pool. In the current research, we used the item pools from an operational MST program to illustrate how research studies…

Matovic, Nataša; Ovesni, Kristinka – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2023
The interaction of quantitative and qualitative methodology in the mixed methods research (MMR) is analysed in a context of distinctions of the meanings between the terms typically used for description, combination, and integration. The interaction in the phases that precede the results, and their interpretation is considered. As an indicator of…

Aspelin, Jonas – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2023
During the last decades, a large body of research has contributed to knowledge on the teacher-student relationship (TSR). However, more research is needed regarding TSR as constructed in interaction and on developing methods for investigating such processes. This paper outlines a method for detailed, close interpretation and analysis of TSR,…

Pragya Shrestha – ProQuest LLC, 2023
In Single-Case Designs (SCD), the outcome variable most commonly involves some form of count data. However, statistical analyses and associated effect size (ES) calculations for count outcomes have only recently been proposed. Three recently proposed ES methods for count data are: Nonlinear Bayesian effect size (Rindskopf, 2014), Log Response…

John Jerrim – British Journal of Educational Studies, 2023
Young people are facing an ever-increasing array of online dangers. One of the most common is receipt of a phishing email. This paper presents new evidence on the characteristics of young people most likely to respond to such emails. I find approximately one-in-seven 15-year-olds are at risk of responding to a phishing email, rising to one-in-five…

Stefkovics, Ádám – Field Methods, 2022
A number of previous studies have shown that the direction of rating scales may affect the distribution of responses. There is also considerable evidence that the cognitive process of answering a survey question differ by survey mode, which suggests that scale direction effects may interact with mode effects. The aim of this study was to explore…

Abas, Suriati – International Studies in Sociology of Education, 2022
Multiple literacy practices, such as writing, texting, blogging and journaling, are intertwined in a crisis. Although many studies have been conducted on literacy practices arising from crises such as a divorce, a disaster and social activism, most of them are focused on a single event. In this chapter, I propose a method for examining literacy…
