Concerns about the conduct of research are pervasive in many fields, including education. In this preregistered study, we replicated and extended previous studies from other fields by asking education researchers about 10 questionable research practices and five open research practices. We asked them to estimate the prevalence of the practices in the field, to self-report their own use of such practices, and to estimate the appropriateness of these behaviors in education research. We made predictions under four umbrella categories: comparison to psychology, geographic location, career stage, and quantitative orientation. Broadly, our results suggest that both questionable and open research practices are used by many education researchers. This baseline information will be useful as education researchers seek to understand existing social norms and grapple with whether and how to improve research practices.

对研究行为的担忧在包括教育在内的许多领域中普遍存在。在此预先注册的研究中，我们通过询问教育研究人员10种有问题的研究实践和5种开放性研究实践，从其他领域复制并扩展了先前的研究。我们要求他们评估该领域中实践的普遍性，自我报告他们对此类实践的使用，并评估这些行为在教育研究中的适当性。我们根据以下四个总体类别进行了预测：与心理学的比较，地理位置，职业阶段和定量取向。从广义上讲，我们的结果表明，许多教育研究人员都在使用有问题和开放的研究实践。
