I am passionate about SSH research. I study what is quality of research and how to evaluate it. I am also a survey methodologist and sociologist.

📌The MOSAiCH 2023 data is now available on SWISSUbase. The 2023 dataset focuses particularly on national identity and citizenship.
These data also contain the 2023 ISSP data for Switzerland 🇨🇭. @ISSP_survey

A Special Issue for our special colleague. Here we bring his unfinished papers together to celebrate ⁦@heravalue⁩. He had an enormous “impact” - priceless and unmeasurable ⁦@Stefan_de_J⁩ ⁦@Juls_Julia⁩ https://t.co/M8OuwfGh0f

Great to see our paper with Ginevra Peruginelli on the legal foundation of responsible research assessment published in Research Evaluation! We relate the legal framework also to research integrity guidelines and challenges of coherent RRA implementation https://t.co/sePLdSQFr5

We have received three(!) lovely testimonials for our edited collection on societal impact and SSH in Europe. Feeling proud of the work we've done and wishing @heravalue was still here to celebrate this.

Lovely publication in my mailbox today. Congrats @evs_values.

[Sven E. Hug @hug_sven]

@ThomasFranssen This is a great paper! Congrats, Thomas. 👏

@MichOchs and I have also argued for stakeholder involvement but in a less brilliant way ...

The future of a whole generation of #earlystageresearchers shouldn't be put at risk for political bargaining. We need UK’s and Switzerland’s association to #HorizonEurope now. #phdchat #ecrchat #StickToScience @EUACDE

👏🎉✊ The European Parliament has just made history, by passing the landmark vote on the Digital Services Act.

This can set the global standard for regulating Big Tech and protecting people online! We will defend this outcome in the next stage of negotiations. #DSA

If you're a scholar you should be terrified at this image. What's more: only 20yrs ago it would have been unintelligible. And you know what's really scary: what this image will look like 20yrs from now.

Our new article ‘Intersectional inequalities in science’ has just been published! A work we did with @lariviev @csugimoto @ThemaWhite, https://t.co/ThUku4FvgC
I will briefly summarize it in this thread 🧵

To all the exasperated doctors and epidemiologists who saw this winter's COVID wave coming and wish that more had been done to prepare,

We understand how you feel.

👀@PolonenJanne, @ekulczycki, @HenriikkaMusta & @Roeggen discuss how biases in traditional research assessment, like equating excellence w/English language publications, can jeopardize the evaluation of researchers creating multilingual outputs.

New publication by @MichOchs. This FORS Guide challenges current practices of the analysis of representativity and suggests a framework to analyse the risk for representation bias taking into account different uses of data. https://t.co/9XQ0A3KtXT

"Researchers should be recognised and rewarded according to the results and the impact of their research, despite the language of application or publication. In practice, assessment criteria and methods are often far from language-neutral"
