Validity of energy social research during and after COVID-19: challenges, considerations, and responses 2020-06-13 .txt text/plain 6188 265 41 Largely grounded in existing good practice guidance, our recommendations include collecting and reporting additional supporting contextual data, reviewing aspects of research design for vulnerability to validity challenges, and building in longitudinal elements where feasible. Broadly speaking, these principles involve giving consideration to possible impacts of the pandemic and associated response measures on findings; adjusting research design and data collection to reflect this; and reporting extra contextual detail. Our recommendations address data collection and the reporting of study conditions and context, as well as considerations for study designs in order to ensure high validity of energy social science research conducted during and after the pandemic. In this paper we have set out what we see as important challenges to the validity --internal, external, and of other forms --of social research in energy associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and measures put in place to control it. ./cache/cord-278900-3rfb1b71.txt ./txt/cord-278900-3rfb1b71.txt
