Book Overview
Social science has recently had numerous episodes of influential research that was found invalid when rigorously scrutinized. Spurred by the growing sense that many published results are potentially erroneous, those conducting social science research are becoming more vehement about demanding that the research is sound.
Transparent and Reproducible Social Science Research is the first book to summarize and synthesize new approaches for combating false positives and nonreproducible findings in social science research, documenting the underlying problems in research practices, and teaching a new generation of students and scholars how to overcome them. Understanding that social science data has real consequences for individuals when used by professionals in health, mental health, law enforcement, policy work, and other fields, the authors crystallize new insights, practices, and methods that support greater research transparency, openness, and reproducibility. Readers are guided through well-known problems and are encouraged to work through solutions and adhere to practices that enhance the quality of the research produced. Written with both novice and experienced researchers in mind, Transparent and Reproducible Social Science Research serves as an indispensable resource for ensuring the production of high-quality social science research.
