Framework for advancing rigorous research

Abstract: There is a pressing need to increase the rigor of research in the life and biomedical sciences. To address this issue, we propose that communities of 'rigor champions' be established to campaign for reforms of the research culture that has led to shortcomings in rigor. These communities of rigor champions would also assist in the development and adoption of a comprehensive educational platform that would teach the principles of rigorous science to researchers at all career stages.

“…There has been much discussion about problems with reproducibility and rigor in the scientific literature ( Landis et al, 2012 ; Plant et al, 2014 ; Nature, 2013 ; Nosek and Errington, 2017 ; Koroshetz et al, 2020 ). Historically, a powerful means to ensure reliability of published data has been to develop community standards.…”

“…Other measures that might influence dustbathing, such as moisture content, analogous measurements for degree of substrate friability, or lipid content were all lacking from the examined studies, and may have contributed to the low precision of the dustbathing model. Reporting measurable or observable substrate characteristics that may influence Galliformes' preferences can contribute to understanding reported observations, improve study reproducibility ( 65 ), and applicability across species. Despite chickens' preference for sand and peat moss, farmers are reticent to their use due to labor requirements, wear and tear on equipment, cost, accessibility and unsustainability.…”

“…Существуют и иные позиции относительно подходов развития, исследуемого объекта. К примеру, коллектив авторов из США указывает на необходимость создания сообществ «ревностных защитников строгости научных исследований» [16]. Таким образом, наглядно продемонстрирована двухуровневая стратегия по развитию исследовательской культуры: формальная и неформальная.…”
