Abstract:
Meta-research, also known as \"research on research\" is a field of study that investigates the methods, reporting, reproducibility, evaluation, and incentives along the research continuum. Meta-research literacy is imperative to ensure high quality, transparent and reproducible primary data or meta-research products. In this commentary, we propose that early career researchers should be trained in meta-research as a foundation to develop a deeper understanding of the research process and ability to appraise the research literature and design high-quality original studies, irrespective of their chosen field of study. We discuss the importance of meta-research and open science from the perspective of an early career trainee, highlighting essential areas for growth and obstacles one may encounter.
摘要:
元研究,也被称为“研究中的研究”是一个研究方法的研究领域,reporting,再现性,评估,以及研究连续过程中的激励措施。元研究素养必须确保高质量,透明和可重复的原始数据或元研究产品。在这篇评论中,我们建议对早期职业研究人员进行元研究培训,以此作为对研究过程的更深入理解和评估研究文献和设计高质量原创研究的能力的基础,不管他们选择的研究领域。我们从早期职业培训生的角度讨论元研究和开放科学的重要性,强调增长的重要领域和可能遇到的障碍。
