Guidelines for reporting evaluations based on observational methodology [PDF]

Psicothema, 2015
Observational methodology is one of the most suitable research designs for evaluating fidelity of implementation, especially in complex interventions. However, the conduct and reporting of observational studies is hampered by the absence of specific guidelines, such as those that exist for other evaluation designs.

Methodological quality checklist for studies based on observational methodology (MQCOM) [PDF]

Psicothema, 2019
No existing instrument addresses the minimum number of items that guarantee methodological quality in studies based on observational methodology. Consequently, professionals who are not experts in observational methodology do not have a basic framework to guide their practice in this type of study.

Sustainable Observations of the AMOC: Methodology and Technology [PDF]

Reviews of Geophysics, 2020
Key Points The AMOC is a system of ocean currents that move heat and carbon around the planet and is predicted to decline in the future The AMOC has been directly measured since the 2000s, but we now have observation systems in place that can verify a future decline We look at how these systems might develop in the future and consider how they might ...

THE METHODOLOGICAL RELEVANCE OF MASS OBSERVATION DATA [PDF]

Innovation in Aging, 2019
Abstract The Mass Observation Project, established in 1937, documents the lives of ordinary people living in the UK, and explores a wide range of social issues. The Project distributes a set of written questions (“Directives”) to a panel of 500 members of the British public (“Observers”) three times each year; “Observers” respond in ...

METHODOLOGICAL PROBLEMS IN THE USE OF PARTICIPANT OBSERVERS [PDF]

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1980
A multiple baseline design across observed students and teachers was used to investigate the relationship between observations by participant observers and changes in the behavior of those observed (“observee” reactivity) and the observers (observer‐mediator reactivity). Two teachers recorded consecutively the appropriate student verbalizations of four

Methodological Issues in Observational Studies [PDF]

ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, 2019
Background: Starting from the 1960s, practitioners and researchers have looked for ways to empirically investigate new technologies such as inspecting the effectiveness of new methods, tools, or practices. With this purpose, the empirical software engineering domain started to identify different empirical methods, borrowing them from various domains ...

Understanding the ballistic event: methodology and initial observations [PDF]

Journal of Materials Science, 2016
The purpose of the study is to accelerate the development of ceramic materials for armour applications by substantially increasing the information obtained from a high-energy projectile impact event. This has been achieved by modifying an existing test configuration to incorporate a block of ballistic gel, attached to the strike face of a ceramic ...

Systematic Review Reveals Lack of Causal Methodology Applied to Pooled Longitudinal Observational Infectious Disease Studies [PDF]

, 2022
Objectives Among ID studies seeking to make causal inferences and pooling individual-level longitudinal data from multiple infectious disease cohorts, we sought to assess what methods are being used, how those methods are being reported, and whether ...

Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE): Explanation and elaboration [PDF]

, 2007
Much medical research is observational. The reporting of observational studies is often of insufficient quality. Poor reporting hampers the assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of a study and the generalisability of its results. Taking into account
