Participatory research can be promoted by scientific intermediary units, such as Science Shops. The overarching goal of these initiatives is thereby to foster a process of co-creation of the research questions to address societal needs that are relevant to scientific research and society at large. The InSPIRES project was a Horizon Europe…

As traditionally conceived, publication bias arises from selection operating on a collection of individually unbiased estimates. A canonical form of such selection across studies (SAS) is the preferential publication of affirmative studies (i.e., those with significant, positive estimates) versus nonaffirmative studies (i.e., those with…

Introduction: The replication crisis in the behavioral and social sciences spawned a credibility revolution, calling for new open science research practices that ensure greater transparency, including preregistrations, open data and code, and open access. Statement of the Problem: Replications of published research are an important element in this…

Inspired by the evolving nature of qualitative research, this study aims to examine the use of "qualitative survey", a newer technique in qualitative data collection methods than interviews and observation. In addition to trends in research capacity, collaborations and research topics, the extent to which this data collection method has…

The main objective of this methodological article is to discuss the contribution of response times as a tool in education research. The use of response times in research is largely a legacy of the work carried out in cognitive psychology, which has made it possible to describe the cognitive processes involved in information processing. In…

Against the backdrop of greater emphasis on learner centredness and growing attention to learners' voices in recent decades, concerns have been raised over researchers' dominance in shaping research scope and findings. Whether it be quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods research, learners' voices are mostly absent at the methodological…

Worldviews influence research--from design to interpretation and reporting. Historically, psychometrics has been predominantly situated within a positivist paradigm, while social research has often aligned with interpretivist or critical paradigms. However, emerging perspectives in the philosophy-of-science are challenging this rigid alignment,…

The educational technology field is at a critical juncture, facing the dual pressures of rapid technological advancement and a pressing need for research that genuinely addresses educational challenges. Despite increasing awareness of these issues, a significant amount of educational technology research remains entrenched in superficial or…

Background: Research Capacity and Culture (RCC) is important for research engagement. Little is known of what speech and language therapy staff perceives to be the barriers or enablers to this at individual, team and organisational levels. Aims: To identify the barriers and enablers to RCC among speech and language therapy staff, using behaviour…

The value of research to library and information science (LIS) practice and the need to build a culture of research within the profession are well documented. Research informs decision-making, supports strategy and planning, and ensures that LIS services remain relevant to changing community needs. Yet a vibrant research culture is present in only…

This article critically assesses the impact of neoliberal imperatives on academic research, questioning the emphasis on economic benefits over intellectual richness and the ethical implications of such a skewed focus. Drawing on Sara Delamont's metaphor of "the great gates," which conceptualizes distinct research trajectories, a…

This systematic review identifies how progressive (student-driven), community-facing (reconstructionist) pedagogies can be used by teachers with 11-19-year-old students to help provide students with the competencies and skills they need to achieve the Organisation for Economic Development's (OECD) Learning Compass 2030. Whilst previous reviews…

This research is aimed at examining the effects of developing research competencies to enhance the current learning of student teachers at Nakhon Sawan Rajabhat University. This study focuses on participants before, during, and after the implementation of the proposed model. The sample consists of 35 fourth-year students enrolled in the Bachelor…

This paper examines the contributions of mapping research to critical qualitative research methodology. Mapping research is introduced, along with its history, the prevalence of geo- and socio-spatial theoretical frameworks used with the methodology, and the predominant framing of mapping research in the field of education. The main goal of this…

This case study is based on research undertaken in 2021 that was prompted by the disruption of COVID-19 in higher education institutions and the subsequent pivot to online learning. The research explored a cross-institutional change project, which was supported and enabled by an agile and matrix-led working environment. The Transformation Academy…
