Céline Chapelle; Gwénaël Le Teuff; Paul Jacques Zufferey; Silvy Laporte; Edouard Ollier – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
The number of meta-analyses of aggregate data has dramatically increased due to the facility of obtaining data from publications and the development of free, easy-to-use, and specialised statistical software. Even when meta-analyses include the same studies, their results may vary owing to different methodological choices. Assessment of the…

Ivimey-Cook, Edward R.; Noble, Daniel W. A.; Nakagawa, Shinichi; Lajeunesse, Marc J.; Pick, Joel L. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2023
Extracting data from studies is the norm in meta-analyses, enabling researchers to generate effect sizes when raw data are otherwise not available. While there has been a general push for increased reproducibility in meta-analysis, the transparency and reproducibility of the data extraction phase is still lagging behind. Unfortunately, there is…

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…

Byers-Heinlein, Krista; Bergmann, Christina; Savalei, Victoria – Infant and Child Development, 2022
Infant research is often underpowered, undermining the robustness and replicability of our findings. Improving the reliability of infant studies offers a solution for increasing statistical power independent of sample size. Here, we discuss two senses of the term reliability in the context of infant research: reliable (large) effects and reliable…

Buckley, Jeffrey; Hyland, Tomás; Seery, Niall – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
Technology education research is a growing field, with the rate of growth increasing over the last 2 decades. As the field grows, it is paramount that credibility is maintained in published findings. To date there is no evidence to suggest a lack trust is warranted, however in the midst of the replication crisis there is need to ensure continued…

Yuan Hsiao; Lee Fiorio; Jonathan Wakefield; Emilio Zagheni – Sociological Methods & Research, 2024
Obtaining reliable and timely estimates of migration flows is critical for advancing the migration theory and guiding policy decisions, but it remains a challenge. Digital data provide granular information on time and space, but do not draw from representative samples of the population, leading to biased estimates. We propose a method for…

Dawadi, Saraswati; Shrestha, Sagun; Giri, Ram A. – Journal of Practical Studies in Education, 2021
The article positions mixed-method research (MMR) as a principled complementary research method to the traditional quantitative and qualitative research approaches. By situating MMR in an analysis of some of the common research paradigms, the article presents it as a natural choice in order to complement and cater to the increasingly complex needs…

A high level of transparency in reported research is critical for several reasons, such as ensuring an acceptable level of trustworthiness and enabling replication. Transparency in qualitative research permits the identification of specific circumstances which are associated with findings and observations. Thus, transparency is important for the…

Simsek, Ahmet Salih – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2023
Likert-type item is the most popular response format for collecting data in social, educational, and psychological studies through scales or questionnaires. However, there is no consensus on whether parametric or non-parametric tests should be preferred when analyzing Likert-type data. This study examined the statistical power of parametric and…

Calver, Michael; Fletcher, Douglas – American Biology Teacher, 2020
Data collected in many biology laboratory classes are on ratio or interval scales where the size interval between adjacent units on the scale is constant, which is a critical requirement for analysis with parametric statistics such as t-tests or analysis of variance. In other cases, such as ratings of disease or behavior, data are collected on…
