[imarvelatthestars]

so i've started working on a couple research projects for school this quarter and one of them involves you guys!

this is geared specifically for creators like me who are writers, as well as artists, but is also open to tiktokers, reviewers, readers, & whatever else it is we creators do with our love of the fandom.

what do you have to do? just fill out this google form as honestly as you can.

what's the catch? no catch! it's completely anonymous. i don't gather any data about who you are, your social media, your name, anything.

is there a due date? i need responses by may 10, 2024

there's no judgement, no "hey i don't like your answers" or "hey i think you're a bad person". this is a purely academic endeavor meant to combine my love of the fandom with my love for learning, writing, & activism.

Discovered a new coffee shop and ordered a cinnamon honey latte with oat milk to get me through my research paper. My professor really assigned us a single-spaced paper…due at midnight and I only have 1 1/2 pages…wish me luck… {mine}

I love doing research, I am not tearing my hair out (lying)

[sharmisthaaaaa]

hey (with the intention of writing a research paper with you)

[finn-exe-hasstopped]

heyyyy 🤭

i'm writing a research paper on supernatural, and i was wondering if any of you would want to take a short survey to be part of it! it's about supernatural's relationship to its fandom.

the survey is only 4 questions, and it's linked below.

let me know if you take it!!

I love it when scientific papers discuss some unclear choices or statements from older literature and just go

"yeah whatever the fuck that meant idk"

it's just so casual that I can't help but crack a smile

[indigomistudies]

back on that research paper grind… not going well at all.

Wish me luck!!

I was in stuck in an escape room with a python until the python started speaking knowledge to the people there. We all then drafted a research paper on that and won an award.

okay everyone. i'm finally starting it: my big long essay about the existence of trans people. i'm writing this for my parents, but will eventually be uploading all of my research, statistics, and the final paper here to tumblr for anyone who wants it. this will absolutely take me months, and if anyone wants to help beta read it and peer review it eventually, please let me know <33

this is something i've been meaning to do for around three years now. my goal is to put forth ironclad evidence that i (a trans man, btw) am not something to be mourned, nor shunned, nor cast out. it may work; it may not. but i'll be damned if i don't try.

New research alert! Research about research, actually!

A couple of years ago we recruited here (and elsewhere) for interview participants for a research study about fat people's experiences online. As part of that study we also asked for thoughts about how to ethically conduct such research, both in online communities and in human-computer interaction research more generally. This short paper was presented as a poster at the ACM Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work & Social Computing. Led by PhD student Blakeley Payne, this also won the conference's Best Poster Recognition! <3

"How to Ethically Engage Fat People in Research"

(1) Choose respectful language. Use participants' own self description in conversation and reporting. Consider the connotations of euphemisms and medicalizing language. We recommend "fat" as a default term to use until participants or the context indicates otherwise.

(2) Consider positionality and practice reflexivity. Fat people are not a monolith but are experts in their own lived experiences. Engage with the history of fat oppression, especially as facilitated by research and medical institutions. Consider your positionality with respect to this history.

(3) Rethink assumptions around weight loss. Don't assume fat people are unhealthy and/or want to lose weight. Interrogate "weight loss" as an embedded design value and its potential for harm. Use notions of health that are weight-neutral such as Health at Every Size.

(4) Engage fat people in research. Fat people want to be engaged in technology design and research! Center fat people's voices, needs, and desires when choosing research questions and methods.

Please help me with my research for university!

I'm a university student in my final year and I am preparing my thesis that focuses on user engagement in the Star Wars fanfiction communities. My main focus is fanfiction relating to the Sequel Trilogy, so if you read or write content relating to this universe you could help me a lot! The form takes about 5 minutes to fill out and is completely anonymus. Results will not be shared with anyone and will only be used as data for my thesis. Thank you so much if you decide to take time for this!

Research is spending 4 hours reading 13 papers so that I can write 2 citations.

Hi! my name is saya and I am a final year student pursuing the course B.A. hons. Applied Psychology. I am conducting a research on the topic of "Social Alienation in the LGBTQ+ Community" as a comparative study between queer and cisgendered heterosexual people.

The questionnaire will take a maximum of 5 to 10 minutes to complete.

I would be highly grateful if you could take the time to fill up this questionnaire, if you fall under the age range of 18-40.

Your responses will be kept confidential and will also be used for research and academic purposes.

I would really appreciate your participation as it would largely benefit my research study.

Thanks a lot.

I would really appreciate if you could take the time to share this as I need a 100 responses. please share it.

Which search engine is best for academic research? Hint: It's not Wikipedia

PubMed

PubMed is a free resource supporting the search and retrieval of biomedical and life sciences literature with the aim of improving health–both globally and personally.

The PubMed database contains more than 34 million citations and abstracts of biomedical literature. It does not include full-text journal articles; however, links to the full text are often present when available from other sources, such as the publisher's website or PubMed Central (PMC).

Available to the public online since 1996, PubMed was developed and is maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), at the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM), located at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Google Scholar

Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts, and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities, and other websites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research.

Semantic Scholar

Semantic Scholar provides free, AI-driven search and discovery tools, and open resources for the global research community. With Semantic Scholar, researchers can understand a paper at a glance. Our system extracts meaning and identifies connections from within papers, then surfaces these insights to help Scholars discover and understand research.

Connected Papers

Connected Papers is a unique, visual tool to help researchers and applied scientists find and explore papers relevant to their field of work.

Research Rabbit

Research Rabbit is starting with our Discovery app which unlocks a completely novel way to search for papers and authors, monitor new literature, visualize research landscapes, and collaborate with colleagues.

Help Me Out With School

I'm writing a research paper for a class about how the "standards of academic success" fail to support vulnerable students, such as the disabled or those struggling with mental health. I'd love some personal accounts of ways neurodivergent and disabled people were failed by the school system.
