This study explores how researchers’ analytical choices affect the reliability of scientific findings. Most discussions problems in science focus on systematic biases. We broaden lens to emphasize idiosyncrasy conscious and unconscious decisions that researchers make during data analysis. coordinated 161 73 research teams observed their as they used same independently test prominent social hypothesis: greater immigration reduces support for policies among public.

This study investigates researcher variability in computational reproduction, an activity for which it is least expected. Eighty-five independent teams attempted numerical replication of results from original policy preferences and immigration. Reproduction were randomly grouped into a ‘transparent group’ receiving code or ‘opaque only method description no code. The transparent group mostly verified (95.7% same sign p -value cutoff), while the opaque had less success (89.3%). Second-decimal...

How does an artwork's referencing of creative content affect its peer recognition? Artists constantly seek to balance the tension between originality and conformity. Previous research argues that peers tend reward socially well-embedded artists signal community involvement literacy established conventions. Another stream sociological criteria for recognition are not fixed but depend on a cultural field's legitimacy. This paper examines emerging shifting standards throughout 70 years in U.S....
How do social and stylistic relations in cultural fields coevolve under changing contextual conditions? Artistic communities cohere through collaborations shared orientations among artists, but little is known about the structure interplay of these relational processes. The authors contribute to previous studies by conducting a large-scale investigation networks Hollywood filmmakers. In particular, examine how between artists’ references changed throughout Hollywood’s history. Using data...
Abstract The global film industry is shaped by gender inequality. Women are structurally underrepresented in professional roles that include high levels of creative and economic decision-making power, such as directors, writers, producers. In our study, we ask to what extent the festival sector, a prestigious sub-field industry, structured biases. To address this question, conceptualize sector one-mode network consisting festivals connected through screening same film, two-mode films...
Creative ML tools are collaborative systems that afford artistic creativity through their myriad interactive relationships. We propose using "assemblage thinking" to support analyses of creative by approaching it as a system in which the elements people, organizations, culture, practices, and technology constantly influence each other. model these interactions "coordinating elements" give rise social political characteristics particular context, call attention three dynamic whose provide...
How can researchers from the creative ML/AI community and sociology of culture engage in fruitful collaboration? do both fields think (differently) about creativity production work? While ML considers as a matter technical expertise acumen, social scientists have emphasized role embeddedness cultural production. This perspective aims to bridge disciplines proposes conceptual methodological toolkit for collaboration. We provide systematic review recent research offer three perspectives around...
