When our partners need an urgent answer we often provide it using a Rapid Review. In this article I explain Rapid Reviews, why you should do them, and a process that you can follow to conduct one.
What is a Rapid Review?
Rapid Reviews are “a form of knowledge synthesis in which components of the systematic review process are simplified or omitted to produce information in a timely manner” [1]. Indeed, with sufficient resources (e.g., multiple staff working simultaneously) you can do a Rapid Review in less than a day. The outputs of these reviews are, of course, brief and descriptive, but they can be very useful where rapid evidence is needed, for example, in addressing COVID-19.
Rapid Reviews can therefore provide detailed research within reduced timeframes and also meet most academic requirements by being standardised and reproducible. They are often, but not always, publishable in peer-reviewed academic journals.167weinreichHow To Run A Free Online Academic Conference - Google Docs3503182020-06-17T12:09:31ZZ167weinreichSJR : Scientific Journal Rankings3502822020-06-15T14:11:03ZZ167weinreichHabit Change Literature Review - Center for Advanced Hindsight3215582020-05-26T16:28:35ZZ167weinreichReasoned Writing / A Framework For Scientific Papers3214782020-05-20T19:36:14ZZ167weinreichWelcome - Twitter for Researchers - IOE LibGuides at Institute of Education, London3097512020-04-27T08:50:26Z2020-04-27T01:50:36Z167weinreichSocial and Behavior Change Buzz Words | LinkedIn2721562019-12-03T12:06:53ZZ167weinreichLitReview_WORKPLACE INTERVENTIONS_v2.pdf - Center for Advanced Hindsight2721492019-12-02T10:34:40ZZWorkplace behavior change interventions, or workplace nudges, are strategies
used to encourage people to act in their own self-interest. These interventions can
be made possible with the help of digital technology, such as mobile applications
or email, as well as choice architecture design in the physical environments of the
workplace, such as posters, objects or furniture arrangement. To this end, we are
going to focus on walking, napping, and eating.
First, we will examine general workplace wellness programs - what other researchers
have tried, how employees reacted to the programs, and their impact. Then, we will
go into further detail about interventions related to our three focus areas.167weinreichScience Forum: Ten common statistical mistakes to watch out for when writing or reviewing a manuscript | eLife2719172019-11-10T21:34:01ZZ167weinreichManuscript Writing Checklist.pdf(Shared)- Adobe Document Cloud2696522019-11-03T15:06:44ZZ167weinreichBehavioral Public Economics Course Resources2695402019-10-23T11:44:59ZZThis is the website for a PhD-level mini-course in behavioral public economics developed by Hunt Allcott and Dmitry Taubinsky.
Through the lens of neoclassical economics, the role of government is to provide public goods, correct externalities, provide information, and address other market failures. In practice, however, some public policies are motivated by the concern that people do not act in their own best interest. For example, many countries ban drugs, tax cigarettes, alcohol, and sugary drinks, or subsidize retirement savings and energy-efficient appliances, all largely on the grounds that consumers would be better off consuming more or less than they do.
Standard approaches to policy analysis rely on revealed preference assumptions to measure an agent’s welfare. Under these assumptions, the direct effect of any policy that changes choices is to reduce consumer welfare. However, empirical evidence from behavioral economics in a variety of domains suggests that people sometimes do make systematic mistakes. The field of behavioral public economics extends the theoretical and empirical tools of public economics to incorporate the possibility of consumer mistakes into questions about policy evaluation and design.
This is a PhD-level mini-course in behavioral public economics. In this course, we’ll consider questions like the following:
How can we do welfare analysis if choice does not necessarily identify utility?
How do we empirically measure consumer biases?
How do we set socially optimal policies in settings when consumers may not act in their own best interest?
Nudges change behavior at low cost. Does that mean they are a good idea?
What are the costs and benefits of tax complexity?167weinreichTwo of the most valuable resources out there on scientific writing2670622019-10-11T09:24:13Z2019-10-15T03:23:17Z167weinreichWriting Publishable Mixed Research Articles: Guidelines for Emerging Scholars in the Health Sciences and Beyond2667432019-09-10T09:28:21ZZ167weinreichBack to School Special: Transmedia Entertainment — Henry Jenkins2667092019-09-08T11:57:26ZZtransmedia course syllabus167weinreichCompilation of Social Marketing Evidence of Effectiveness - CEPSM2666212019-09-02T19:07:52ZZ167weinreichHow to spot a statistical problem: advice for a non-statistical reviewer | BMC Medicine | Full Text2665292019-08-25T11:02:48ZZ167weinreichHow to create a better research poster in less time (including templates) - YouTube2642842019-07-16T20:12:16Z2021-04-19T00:35:20ZVersion 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYk29tnxASs
Every field in science uses the same, old, wall-of-text poster design. If we can improve the knowledge transfer efficiency of that design even by a little bit, it could have massive ripple effects on all of science.
Also, poster sessions tend to suck, so here's my pitch to make them more efficient AND more fun with a new approach to designing scientific posters/academic posters that is both more usable, and easier to create!167weinreichA nifty guide for academics on using Twitter | PLOS SciComm2642772019-07-16T11:09:43ZZ167weinreichUnsupervised word embeddings capture latent knowledge from materials science literature | Nature2642122019-07-07T09:54:32ZZHere we show that materials science knowledge present in the published literature can be efficiently encoded as information-dense word embeddings11,12,13 (vector representations of words) without human labelling or supervision. Without any explicit insertion of chemical knowledge, these embeddings capture complex materials science concepts such as the underlying structure of the periodic table and structure–property relationships in materials. Furthermore, we demonstrate that an unsupervised method can recommend materials for functional applications several years before their discovery. This suggests that latent knowledge regarding future discoveries is to a large extent embedded in past publications. Our findings highlight the possibility of extracting knowledge and relationships from the massive body of scientific literature in a collective manner, and point towards a generalized approach to the mining of scientific literature.167weinreichSocial marketing theory development goals: an agenda to drive change: Journal of Marketing Management: Vol 35, No 1-22534272019-06-23T19:58:13ZZ167weinreichHow to write a blogpost from your journal article in eleven easy steps. | Impact of Social Sciences2514922019-05-06T20:05:13ZZ167weinreich5 free ways around the great paywall of academia. #Updated 2018# – Fish Thinkers2340412019-01-27T12:16:09ZZ167weinreichReview of Behavioral Economics - journal2302872019-01-06T18:10:24Z2019-01-27T03:28:35ZSpecial Issue on Paternalism - open access167weinreichProduct Design Exercises We Use At WeWork Interviews761572017-05-22T12:33:07ZZ167weinreichSocial Norms, Social Change I - University of Pennsylvania, Unicef | Coursera763132017-01-05T20:06:52ZZ167weinreichGamification - University of Pennsylvania | Coursera763222017-01-05T19:38:44ZZ167weinreichCollege of Public Health News Pioneers of social marketing discuss its founding and its future - College of Public Health News767892015-06-02T18:07:54ZZ167weinreichBuilding Storyworlds:the art, craft & biz of storytelling in 21c — Story R&D — Medium771072015-01-08T23:21:39ZZLance Weiler's syllabus for his Columbia University class167weinreichSocial Marketing and Social Change - Lefebvre Chap 1 (pdf)772442014-11-11T18:38:49ZZ167weinreichAcademic Competencies for Social Marketing - On Social Marketing and Social Change773232014-09-22T06:59:10ZZ167weinreichTransmedia Storytelling and Entertainment: A New Syllabus778182013-08-29T01:03:14ZZ167weinreichCDC - Health Communication - Science Digest780642012-10-07T06:06:49ZZ167weinreichAn integrative model for social marketing (pdf)782252011-12-26T23:09:52ZZ167weinreichCDC - Health Communication Science Digest783002011-08-19T06:07:51ZZ167weinreichMIT OpenCourseWare | Comparative Media Studies | Game Design783062011-08-19T04:51:25ZZ167weinreichCan Schools Teach Designers How to Solve the World's Problems? - Design - GOOD784212011-03-14T19:19:53ZZ167weinreich100 Serious Twitter Tips for Academics | Best Colleges Online786922010-10-10T05:29:54ZZ167weinreichSocial Marketing: Academic Publication Outlets & Journal Quality - Stephan Dahl's Blog789702010-04-22T22:44:24ZZ167weinreichCurrent Themes in Social Marketing - Stephan Dahl's Blog790932009-10-06T21:10:09ZZ167weinreichArchived seminars from GWU social marketing lecture series792052009-02-10T06:21:05ZZ167weinreichWorld Social Marketing Conference 08 Keynote Session Presentations792482008-10-31T06:15:44ZZ167weinreichCases in Public Health Communication & Marketing793362007-06-11T07:05:02ZZOnline journal from GWU School of Public Health167weinreichSSRN – Social & Environmental Impact Network793812007-01-17T21:27:40ZZSEIN is an “open access” library of academic research, class notes, sample exams, etc., dedicated to the social and environmental impacts of business from the Aspen Institute's CasePlace.org.167weinreichSocial Marketing Applications in Public Health795712006-01-25T03:50:41ZZslides for an introduction to social marketing from Aga Khan University in Pakistan167weinreich
