Research methods and scholar examples

Research training beyond introductory study: evidence synthesis, causal design, modelling, qualitative analysis and reproducible experiments.

Start with your research question, choose a method, study original materials and produce work others can examine. Sources are mainly in English, with bilingual reading tasks.

The workbooks and review criteria are platform-designed exercises for projects or group discussion, not assignments set by the source authors.

Questions and contributions: distinguish competing explanations

Compare candidate questions, map claims to evidence and draft a proposal that can be challenged.

Evidence synthesis: protocols, bias and disagreement

Move from rerunnable searches to synthesis; separate reporting, study quality and comparability.

Method · example · deliverable · review criteria →

Causal design: estimands, DAGs and sample justification

Define the target trial and identification assumptions before estimation, then simulate where the design fails.

Bayesian workflow: generative models, diagnostics and revision

Connect priors, sampling diagnostics, predictive checks and sensitivity analysis in an auditable workflow.

Reflexive thematic analysis: from extracts to interpretation

State epistemology and positionality, trace codes into themes and revise interpretations using counterexamples.

Method · example · deliverable · review criteria →

Reproducible experiments: baselines, fair comparisons and failure audits

Fix splits, comparison budgets and sources of variability so another researcher can rebuild the main result.

Reading target
Distinguish codes, themes and topic summaries, and consider the researcher's interpretive role.
Prerequisites
Interview or text material, a question and basic qualitative epistemology.
Platform-designed exercise
Build an extract–code–candidate theme–interpretation trail with a counterexample.
Method boundary
Do not impose inter-coder agreement as a universal threshold for reflexive thematic analysis; name the analytic approach.
Access
Author-site search index available; direct retrieval failed in this check. A worked paper is linked in the guide.
