We explored the peer review process used by the psychology, psychiatry and neuroscience subpanel ofReF2021. By studying the words used by the journal articles submitted to the panel, we were able toidentify 33 main topics that collectively characterised the composition of outputs returned to the sub-panel. these topics collectively explained a large proportion of the variance – 90.1% in our main analysis,70.4% in our loocV analysis – in the subpanel’s judgements of unit-level research quality. We found thatunits which submitted more work focused on Sensory Processing and Perception, and law and humanBehaviour tended to receive higher output scores, and those which submitted more work focused onMental health epidemiology, Face Recognition and, particularly, Qualitative Research, tended to receivelower output scores. obviously, these relationships are correlational, and we cannot draw conclusionsabout causality. Nevertheless, given the speculation that including psychology in a subpanel alongsidepsychiatry and neuroscience has the effect of favouring some parts of the discipline over others, theserelatively strong relationships require unpacking

For anyone interested in #psychology, #research assessment and evaluation, how the expert panel rated research submitted to #REF2021 - and especially the fate of #qualitative research - our article in Cogent Psychology is #OpenAccess (link in next post).

Screenshot of article title, authors, and Abstract Psychology and research assessment in the United Kingdom Matthew Inglis,Colin Foster,Hugues Lortie-Forgues,Victoria Simms & Elizabeth Stokoe Abstract What can we learn about psychology research in the UK, and its perceived quality, from examining manuscripts submitted to the psychology, psychiatry and neuroscience subpanel of the 2021 Research Excellence Framework (REF2021)? Using a latent Dirichlet allocation topic modelling approach, we identified 33 topics which collectively summarised the content of the journal articles returned to the subpanel. We found that the composition of submissions to the subpanel, in terms of these topics, explained a large proportion of the variance in the quality assessments they received from the expert peer review subpanel. Our model identified topics which were typically associated with receiving higher and lower unit-level quality assessments. In our discussion we pay particular attention to the fate of qualitative research, and discuss possible accounts for why units who returned a large amount of qualitative work tended to receive lower quality assessments than those who did not.

How councils legitimize flag-flying ("Stay safe" -!) and further shift the Overton Window: "it’s actually an offence to attach anything to a street light without permission" but "highways teams will only step in if flags ... pose a serious safety risk"
t Charnwood Borough Council, we take pride in celebrating our national identity in a way that is both respectful and inclusive. As part of our established flag flying programme, we regularly fly the St George’s Flag and the Union Flag at our Council offices and Loughborough Town Hall. These flags are symbols of unity — they should bring people together, not drive us apart. We’ve recently seen an increase in flags being flown on lampposts across the borough and received comments and feedback from our communities. Some residents support this informal display of national pride, while others have expressed concerns about the intentions behind some of the flags and the discomfort they feel as a result. For clarity, we do not manage lampposts, that is Leicestershire County Council, and it has publicly stated its approach to the situation, saying it will only remove flags if they are a serious safety risk. You can read its statement and people can contact them directly if they wish. A call is being made for people to stay safe when putting up flags and to stop painting the roads. Leicestershire County Council is making the plea after hundreds of Union flags and St George Crosses have appeared over the last few weeks. While it’s actually an offence to attach anything to a street light without permission, highways teams will only step in if flags attached to lamp posts, or other street furniture, pose a serious safety risk, but people are being asked not to paint or graffiti mini-roundabouts and crossings, which is illegal. Since Friday (29 August), highways teams have had to remove at least three separate sets of offensive graffiti, adding to taxpayers’ bills.
