The Illusion of Generalizability

"Although the project recruited 171 researchers from 109 institutions, and 13629 research participants speaking 40 languages across 61 countries, we argue that relying solely on the typical big team methodology created an "illusion of generalizability", leading authors to overestimate the extent to which research findings can be applied globally."

On the one hand, there will be more studies on #ScienceCommunication, #Populism, #SocialMedia, and #ClimateChange beliefs 🔎
Moreover, @colognav@twitter.com and I lead a global #ManyLabs study that investigates #trust in science, populism, and climate change attitudes – drawing on a global #survey in 60+ countries and 200+ collaborators 🌏🌍🌎

We had the pleasure of having @kim_doell@twitter.com present insights about Big Team Science. She talked about the #ManyLabs Climate project (@vlasceanu_mada@twitter.com, @jayvanbavel@twitter.com) and gave incredibly insightful advice on what questions to ask, equity and practicalities. Take a look for yourself👀🌍
