Comparing Different Methods For Multiple Testing In Reaction Time Data, Massimiliano Pastore, Massimo Nucci, Giovanni Galfano

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods

Reaction times were simulated for examining the power of six methods for multiple testing, as a function of sample size and departures from normality. Power estimates were low for all methods for non-normal distributions. With normal distributions, even for small sample sizes, satisfactory power estimates were observed, especially for FDR-based procedures.

Reflecting On The Experience Sampling Method In The Qualitative Research Context: Focus On Knowledge Production And Power During The Data-Collection Process

Fredline MCormack-Hale

In this conceptual article, we discuss how the conventional experience sampling method (ESM) was applied to a qualitative research project to increase participants’ agency and empowerment during data collection. Specifically we outline the conceptual and methodological tensions, complexities, and power shifts that emerged during our data-collection process. Research examples illustrate the location of knowers (researchers and study participants), the knowers’ relationship to various tangible objects of research (e.g., protocols, digital devices), and how these notions shape power and data that is constructed within a research study. We conclude that it is important to analyze and reflect on how researchers conduct …
