Description
In his talk, Dr. Plonsky will focus in particular on the notion of ‘questionable research practices’ (QRPs) both conceptually and as found in recent studies in applied linguistics and beyond (Fanelli, 2009; Larsson et al., 2023). He will propose a framework for defining the notion of ‘study quality’ that includes a broad understanding of the many micro-ethical considerations found throughout the research process (i.e., Kubanyiova, 2008).
