まとめ
科学者のほんの一握りは 深刻な不振を成功と結びつけますが 5分の1は 疑わしい研究慣行 (QRPs) を 学問的成果と結びつけています これは研究における倫理的な訓練の必要性を強調しています.
科学分野:
- 社会科学
- 心理学
- 研究倫理
背景:
- 科学的整合性は,不正行為と疑わしい研究慣行 (QRPs) によって脅かされています.
- これらの問題に対する科学者の暗黙の態度を理解することは 研究の信頼性を維持するために不可欠です
研究 の 目的:
- 科学的不適切な行為,QRP,学術的な成功の間の暗黙の関連を調査する.
- ドイツ語圏の科学者の大きなサンプルでこれらの関連性を調べる.
主な方法:
- 暗黙の態度を測定するために単一カテゴリー暗黙の関連テスト (SC-IAT) を利用しました.
- オーストリア,ドイツ,スイス の 科学 者 11,747 人 を 調査 し まし た.
主要な成果:
- 研究者のわずかな割合は 暗黙的に 深刻な不正行為と成功を結びつけています
- 参加者の約20%がQRPを学業の成功と関連付けました
- 性別や学科によって関連性はほとんどなく,学術的な地位によって減少した.
結論:
- 深刻な不行は成功とはめったに結びつかないが,QRPは一部の研究者の間では顕著な暗黙の関連を示している.
- 発見は,QRPに関する潜在的なコホート効果や進化する倫理規範を示唆しています.
- 科学的実践における早期の継続的な倫理的訓練の重要性を強調し, 研究の整合性を維持する.

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Ethics in Research

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping
40.2K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Cochran's Q Test
547
Cochran's Q Test is a nonparametric statistical test used to determine if there are potential differences in the outcomes of three or more related groups on a binary (yes/no) or dichotomous outcome. It is essentially an extension of the McNemar Test, which is limited to two related samples - Cochran's Q test can handle three or more related samples, making it more versatile in scenarios where subjects are measured under multiple conditions. The test statistic follows a Chi-Square...

Confirmation Biases
7.2K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

Decision Making: Traditional Method
4.1K
The process of hypothesis testing based on the traditional method includes calculating the critical value, testing the value of the test statistic using the sample data, and interpreting these values.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is decided based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to this claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses, out of which a null hypothesis would be a...
