Research Design, as Independent of Methods
Abstract
Objectives \n•Readers of this chapter should be in a better position to: \n•Understand the process of research design \n•Place their own and others work within a full cycle or programme of ongoing research \n•Understand why good research almost always involves a mixture of evidence \n•Defend themselves from those who want numbers and text to be enemies rather than allies \n•Argue that good research is more ethical for society than poor research

“Mixed methods have been claimed to be a third paradigm (Johnson & Onwuegbuzie, 2004), but this seems to add to the confusion by apparently confirming the validity of the first two, instead of simply blowing them all away by not mentioning any of them in the development of new research - ers.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
