Recently, social science has had numerous episodes of influential
research that was found invalid when placed under rigorous
scrutiny. The growing sense that many published results are
potentially erroneous has made those conducting social science
research more determined to ensure the underlying research is
sound. Transparent and Reproducible Social Science Research is the
first book to summarize and synthesize new approaches to combat
false positives and non-reproducible findings in social science
research, document the underlying problems in research practices,
and teach a new generation of students and scholars how to overcome
them. Understanding that social science research has real
consequences for individuals when used by professionals in public
policy, health, law enforcement, and other fields, the book
crystallizes new insights, practices, and methods that help ensure
greater research transparency, openness, and reproducibility.
Readers are guided through well-known problems and are encouraged
to work through new solutions and practices to improve the openness
of their research. Created with both experienced and novice
researchers in mind, Transparent and Reproducible Social Science
Research serves as an indispensable resource for the production of
high quality social science research.
