Very cool mixed-method study looking at why individuals are reluctant to get vaccinated

(A health sciences prof once said to me 'There's no point running a trial unless you get some qual data from patients too' and I think this applies to so much psych research. Quant + qual together is great!)

Conversations about open qual are kicking off in the other place- and not for good reasons 😓 There’s a lot of great work being done by qual folks interrogating how, why and when open research is appropriate, and to see that growing work ignored by a prominent figure in open science is frustrating. 😓
