- W615934970 abstract "Although most undergraduates should have some access to and familiarity with the literature, the transition to graduate school generally involves a much greater focus on reading and interpreting empirical studies. Graduate student learning often includes not only the mechanics of empirical design, but also the process by which design progresses to study, and on to publication. How students understand this process, and the extent to which they ultimately view the resulting literature as relevant to their post-graduate school careers, will likely be influenced by how much they trust both the literature and the process that generates it. One aspect of the process that may ultimately influence trust in the literature is an understanding of issues relating to publication bias. In recent years, problems relating to publication bias, the selective publication of studies with a particular outcome (Ferguson & Brannick, 2012, p. 120), have received increased attention. In a sample of 91 published meta-analyses, Ferguson and Brannick (2012) concluded that the effects of publication bias were worrisome in about 25%, and pointed to a bias in selecting unpublished studies as one major contributing factor. Kepes, Banks, and Oh (2014) re-analyzed data from four published meta-analyses and found that three of the four showed some potential influence of publication bias, calling into question their results. It should not be surprising that publication bias has been of particular interest in meta-analytic circles, given its explicit consideration of issues relating to Rosenthal's (1979) file drawer problem, which emphasizes the effect unpublished studies may have on meta-analytic results. Attempts to address publication bias are on-going. Begg (1994), in a chapter in The Handbook of Research Synthesis, outlined methods for both identifying and correcting for publication bias. In 2009, Sutton updated and expanded Begg's (1994) treatment of the topic. Even more recently, Francis (2012) argued that application of Bayesian analysis may help to reduce such bias. Methods for identifying and correcting the issue may be evolving, but the problem remains. Publication bias has been attributed both to the actions of authors and editors (Greenwald, 1975). On the authorial side, Franco, Malhotra, and Simonovits (2014) reviewed a sample of 221 studies from the National Science Foundation's TESS (Time-sharing Experiments in the Social Sciences) program. All studies were peer-reviewed prior to being conducted, so Franco et al. noted that it was reasonable to assume that their designs were of relatively high-quality. Although around 50% of the 221 studies were eventually published, only around 20% of those with null results were published. This was not simply a matter, as might be assumed, of journals rejecting studies with null findings. The vast majority of the studies with null results--65%--were never written up by the researchers at all. From the perspective of journal and editorial publication practices, distinct issues have been identified. Fanelli (2010) demonstrated that the percentage of published studies in the social and behavioral sciences with supported hypotheses is much higher than in the physical or biological sciences. This is consistent with the arguments of Kepes and McDaniel (2013), who note that the percentage of studies in psychology that support their hypotheses is so high that, we are either approaching omniscience or our journals are publishing an unrepresentative sample of completed research (p. 252). Both Fanelli (2010) and Kepes and McDaniel (2013) highlight the reticence of journals, particularly in psychology, to publish null results. Ferguson and Heene (2012) go on to point out that failing to publish null results undermines one of the core principles of science: replicability. If null results are unlikely to be published, then failed replications are unlikely to be published, and psychology will be unable to correct Type I errors that make their way into the literature. …" @default.
