Is research ethics universal—or discipline-specific? Surveying 11,000+ researchers & ethics reviewers, we uncover systematic field differences in attitudes toward QRPs, with medical researchers the strictest. New @jedilab_liu paper out in Research Policy https://t.co/jOgqa37KO5
New paper out! We examine urban–rural tensions in Sweden, testing whether place identities and resentment shape how people evaluate political statements.

🔔 New paper alert!
Scientists often juggle what’s best for science vs. their careers—a tradeoff between communitarian & individualistic ideals.
We call this scientific normative dissonance.
Study by @linakoppel@amandalinki maps it across academia:

@linakoppel@amandalinki 7/
Researchers in psychology showed slightly lower normative dissonance than those in economics & business—especially on whether research should be judged on merit (universalism) or reputation (particularism).
Albeit sample size was modest.
People approach risky decisions differently when deciding for themselves than for others, the assumption goes.
Research by @lewendm—with 3 samples of professional decision makers and a general one—finds ~no significant evidence this is the case (!)

@Humanpapers Misunderstanding was when subjects responded incorrectly to one or both comprehension questions shown in the screenshot in prevous comment
Honestly, I think our new paper has serious implications for experimental econ
22–27% failed comprehension in the Dictator and Ultimatum games
In the Trust Game and Public Goods Game, that number hit 70% and 52%
These are foundational tools of exp econ

@JoLohse Sorry we should have referenced that paper. We tried our very very best to phrase the comprehension questions as straightforward as possible. Here is a screenshot of the instruction
@WEK204686 Yes. one of the main critiques we’ve gotten is that researchers often use various (undocumented) "tricks of the trade" to boost comprehension. It would definitely be interesting to systematically collect and test how effective those tricks actually are
@sharmutal hmm it is published open access in Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization . If it gets more or less visitors than your onlyfans I don't know
@sharmutal You clicked the link to the Open Science Framework where we have uploaded data, code and pre-registration. The actual paper is here: https://t.co/2MFW5hc96G
