Harel, Daphna; Steele, Russell J. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2018
Collapsing categories is a commonly used data reduction technique; however, to date there do not exist principled methods to determine whether collapsing categories is appropriate in practice. With ordinal responses under the partial credit model, when collapsing categories, the true model for the collapsed data is no longer a partial credit…

Machin, Helen E.; Shardlow, Steven M. – Research Ethics, 2018
Researchers engaged in studies about 'hidden social groups' are likely to face several ethical challenges. Using a study with undocumented Chinese migrants in the UK, challenges involved in obtaining approval by a university research ethics committee are explored. General guidance about how to resolve potential research ethics issues, with…

Taylor, Joanna; Pagliari, Claudia – Research Ethics, 2018
Background: Data representing people's behaviour, attitudes, feelings and relationships are increasingly being harvested from social media platforms and re-used for research purposes. This can be ethically problematic, even where such data exist in the public domain. We set out to explore how the academic community is addressing these challenges…

Gehlbach, Hunter; Robinson, Carly D. – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2018
Like performance-enhancing drugs inflating apparent athletic achievements, several common social science practices contribute to the production of illusory results. In this article, we examine the processes that lead to illusory findings and describe their consequences. We borrow from an approach used increasingly by other disciplines--the norm of…

Oh-Young, Conrad; Gordon, Howard R. D.; Xing, Xue; Filler, John – Journal of Research in Technical Careers, 2018
Meta-analytic studies are syntheses of literature in which researchers use statistical means to summarize the findings presented across primary studies. They are of great interest in the fields of medicine and social sciences with numerous examples published in peer-reviewed journals. However, it appears that career and technical education (CTE)…
