Resuscitating poor quality research

Series
Evidence-Based Health Care
Embed
Healthcare research is all too often plagued by biases that are rooted in poor methods, leading to the wrong result and conclusions and preventing uptake into practice.

We need a better understanding of what constitutes rigorous research; what are the different types of research that underpin decision making that matters to patients and how we should go about fixing the problems of poor quality research.

There are major structural problems with the current production and use of evidence that needs resuscitating. If left unaddressed, these inherent problems may become entrenched and unsolvable.

Socio­economic inequalities in education achievement and student outcomes

Series
Department of Education Public Seminars
Embed
Anna Vignoles, Professor of Education and Director of Research at the Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge and a trustee of the Nuffield Foundation, gives a talk for the Department of Education Public Seminar Series.
Whilst much attention has been paid to the socio­economic gap in higher education participation, far less research has investigated the extent to which graduate earnings vary by their socio­economic background.
In this research, we present results from an analysis that uses large scale administrative data from both the education and the tax systems to document the trajectories taken by different pupils through the school system into HE and beyond into the labour market. We then measure how the earnings of English graduates around 10 years into the labour market vary with the socioeconomic background of the graduate. Based on a simple measure of parental income, we see that graduates from higher income families (from the top fifth of the income distribution of those enrolled in university) have median earnings which are around 25% more than those from lower income families. This partly reflects the different subject and institution choices of students from different socio­economic backgrounds. Once we control for institution attended and subject chosen, this premium falls to around 10%.
We discuss the interpretation of these findings for policy on fair access to universities whose graduates tend to have higher earnings.

How vulnerable are we to crime by the statuses we post on our social accounts?
The popularity of social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat have transformed the way we understand and experience crime and victimisation. But, how do we stop our social media obsession from sharing too much online and making us a target for crime? We visited Dr Jason Nurse from the Computer Science Department at the University of Oxford to ask about social media and crime: the good, the bad and the ugly…
