Just a reminder that we at @Journal_BPA welcome well-designed research baring null results. xitter.cf/SteveStuWill/status/16…
“Studies with null results are perceived to be less publishable, of lower quality, less important, and less precisely estimated than studies with large and statistically significant results, even when holding constant all other study features.” academic.oup.com/ej/advance-…

Proud to have worked with @overtonmichael7 to develop this roundtable in Administrative Informatics, an emerging PA-centric data science subfield focused on the operational needs of agencies rather than policy analysis. Thank you to all the authors that contributed! – at York, NE

Thrilled to be part of the roundtable on administrative informatics in @Journal_BPA. My contribution was perhaps not surprisingly on..."Using Data in Government: Advancing Policy Frameworks to Support Operational Decision-Making" #OpenAccess #EvidenceAct
