Information and communication technology for environmental regulation: developing a research agenda
(2013)
Khoo, Su-Ming; Hickey, Kieran R.
Abstract:
The ways in which information and communications technology can be used to support environmental regulation were the subject of an international exploratory workshop in NUI Galway on 20–21 June 2013. The event, ‘Information and Communications Technology for Environmental Regulation: Developing a Research Agenda’, was funded by NUI Galway’s Ryan Institute for Environmental, Marine and Energy Research, the Whitaker Institute for Innovation and Societal Change, and the Irish Research Council. It attracted over fifty international experts from Europe, the United States of America and Australia. The delegates were experts in law, the physical and social sciences, information systems and web science. The lively discussions addressed topics such as real-time monitoring of air pollution through sensors; large-scale databases of geographical information on the health of rivers, lakes and beaches; satellite-based monitoring of farming patterns; and the provision of information on industrial p...

A four-cycle model of IS design science research: capturing the dynamic nature of IS artifact design
(2016)
Drechsler, Andreas; Hevner, Alan
Abstract:
We propose to extend the well-known three-cycle view for design science research (DSR) with a fourth cycle (change and impact cycle) that captures the dynamic nature of IS artifact design for volatile environments. The appropriation of in-innovative designs results in organizational changes that happen outside the new artifacts' immediate application contexts. The intention behind introducing the fourth cycle is to integrate recent advances in the DSR discourse conceptually within the DSR cycle model. We critically review such recent advances and integrate them into an extended model. We show how this change and impact (CI) cycle adds an important facet to DSR to cope with dynamic application contexts as well as artifact-induced organizational change and the resulting need for follow-up design efforts. Iterations of the CI cycle represent the continuous design evolution required to keep up with changing organizational environments.

A Reflective Conversation: Community and HEI Perspectives on Community-Based Research.
(2014)
O'Reilly, Niamh; Bates, Catherine
Abstract:
This paper is a reflective correspondence between a community partner and a community-based research coordinator in a higher education institute (HEI). We asked each other questions about our experience of collaborating on two community-based research (CBR) projects, in order to share our learning from our collaboration, and to relate this to the wider context in order to develop recommendations for others – community partners and HEI staff – who would like to initiate CBR projects in the future.

Abstract:
<p>The original article is available at www.biomedcentral.com</p>
<p>BACKGROUND: In mental health services what is commonplace across international frontiers is that to prevent aggressive patients from harming themselves, other patients or staff, coercive measures and foremost, violence management strategies are required. There is no agreement, recommendations or direction from the EU on which measures of coercion should be practiced across EU countries, and there is no overall one best practice approach.</p> <p>METHODS: The project was conceived through an expert group, the European Violence in Psychiatry Research Group (EViPRG). The study aimed to incorporate an EU and multidisciplinary response in the determination of violence management practices and related research and education priorities across 17 European countries. From the EVIPRG members, one member from each country agreed to act as the national project coordinator for their country. Giv...

Better palliative care for people with a dementia: summary of interdisciplinary workshop highlighting current gaps and recommendations for future research
(2017)
Fox, Siobhán; Fitzgerald, Carol; Dening, Karen Harrison; Irving, Kate; Kernohan, W. George; Treloar, Adrian; Oliver, David; Guerin, Suzanne; Timmons, Suzanne
Abstract:
Background: Dementia is the most common neurological disorder worldwide and is a life-limiting condition, but very often is not recognised as such. People with dementia, and their carers, have been shown to have palliative care needs equal in extent to those of cancer patients. However, many people with advanced dementia are not routinely being assessed to determine their palliative care needs, and it is not clear why this is so. Main body: An interdisciplinary workshop on "Palliative Care in Neurodegeneration, with a focus on Dementia", was held in Cork, Ireland, in May 2016. The key aim of this workshop was to discuss the evidence base for palliative care for people with dementia, to identify 'gaps' for clinical research, and to make recommendations for interdisciplinary research practice. To lead the discussion throughout the day a multidisciplinary panel of expert speakers were brought together, including both researchers and clinicians from across Ireland an...

Investigating perceived challenges in English language writing instruction: An action research study in a Saudi university preparatory programme
(2017)
Alkubaidi, Miriam
Abstract:
This study investigates English language writing in a Saudi university context. In this project, it became clear that teachers as well as learners should be involved in any investigation of English language writing. Teaching methodology plays a prominent role in the way students perceive the writing process. Through an action research project, this study seeks to ascertain students' and teachers' perspectives on writing classes in a Saudi university, the methods used in their writing classes, students, preferences, and ultimately how to improve the quality of writing instruction. The conceptual framework of this action research is located within the social constructivist paradigm. The action research project at English Language Institute was organized, according to, three main phases: an exploration, intervention and reflection stage. In the exploration phase, I explored the writing setting in my workplace. This was achieved by classroom observations throughout the academi...

(Re-)designing higher education curricula in times of systemic dysfunction: a responsible research and innovation perspective
(2017)
Tassone, Valentina C.; O'Mahony, Catherine; McKenna, Emma; Eppink, Hansje J.; Wals, Arjen E. J.
Abstract:
There is an urgent need to address the grand sustainability challenges of our time, and to explore new and more responsible ways of operating, researching, and innovating that enable society to respond to these challenges. The emergent Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) policy agenda can act as a catalyst towards the development of new and more responsible research and innovation efforts. Inevitably, higher education needs to be closely attuned to this need and agenda, by preparing students to engage in RRI efforts. This paper makes a first step towards guiding the embedding of RRI within higher education. It does so by bringing together academic knowledge with phronesis or practical knowledge about what should be done in an ethical, political, and practical sense. It draws on a literature review and on the reflective practices of partners in the European Commission funded project EnRRICH (Enhancing Responsible Research and Innovation through Curricula in Higher Education), a...

Searching for the impact of participation in health and health research: challenges and methods
(2018)
Harris, Janet; Cook, Tina; Gibbs, Lisa; Oetzel, John; Salsberg, Jon; Shinn, Carolynne; Springett, Jane; Wallerstein, Nina; Wright, Michael
Abstract:
Internationally, the interest in involving patients and the public in designing and delivering health interventions and researching their effectiveness is increasing. Several systematic reviews of participation in health research have recently been completed, which note a number of challenges in documenting the impact of participation. Challenges include working across stakeholders with different understandings of participation and levels of experience in reviewing; comparing heterogeneous populations and contexts; configuring findings from often thin descriptions of participation in academic papers; and dealing with different definitions of impact. This paper aims to advance methods for systematically reviewing the impact of participation in health research, drawing on recent systematic review guidance. Practical examples for dealing with issues at each stage of a review are provided based on recent experience. Recommendations for improving primary research on participation in heal...

Ethnic minority health in Ireland—cocreating knowledge (EMH-IC): a participatory health research protocol
(2018)
Hannigan, Ailish; Basogomba, Alphonse; LeMaster, Joseph W.; Nurse, Diane; O'Reilly, Fiona; Roura, Maria; Villarroel, Nazmy; MacFarlane, Anne E.
Abstract:
Introduction International policy recommends continuous, cost-effective monitoring of health data to enable health services to identify and respond to health inequities as experienced by different ethnic groups. However, there is a lack of routinely collected ethnicity data, particularly in primary care, and very little implementation research internationally to understand how ethnic identifiers are introduced, embedded and used in healthcare settings. This paper describes a protocol for a novel participatory health research project with the objective of building the evidence base on ethnic minority health in Ireland. Findings on the participatory appraisal of ethnic identifiers as an intervention to generate useful data about minority and majority ethnic groups will have relevance in other settings and countries. Methods and analysis This multidisciplinary project is designed as a participatory health research study where all stakeholders, including ethnic minority communities, par...

Future experiments from the past: Third Cinema and artistic research from below
(2019)
Errazu, Miguel; Pedregal, Alejandro
Abstract:
This article examines possible articulations of artistic praxis and research in relation to social conflict and political struggle. Taking some of the guiding principles of Third Cinema, which we will consider here both a film strategy and an epistemic project “from below”, our aim is to provide elements for discussion to the current debates on art-as-research. Third Cinema, despite its specificities and differences with current times, provided a dialectical and dialogistic approach to artwork, which was conceived as an open realm for criticism, discussion, and struggle, inscribed within a radical political agenda. This article aims at recovering the importance of this critical movement in the arts and uses it as a source of inspiration to propose a series of insights on artistic research, in relation to contemporary interests in collaborative, long-term projects and the third wave of institutional critique. We seek to challenge commonsensical notions around four fundamental axes—ex...

Rap and political participation: using rap as a creative method in research with children and young people
(2019)
Byrne, Lorcan; O'Connell, Cathal; O'Sullivan, Siobhán
Abstract:
This article explores how rap music workshops can be an effective method when researching neighbourhood regeneration and refurbishment with children and young people, especially in disadvantaged communities. The article draws a research with 78 children and young people in a large social housing estate which is undergoing regeneration and refurbishment in Cork City in the South of Ireland. The focus of this article is on a sub-group of six teenagers who participated in a rap workshop. The research demonstrates that rap music workshops are an insightful data collection method, particularly in contexts where rap music is already an embedded part of the local youth culture. This research also reveals how children and young people have the imaginative capacity to make an informed analysis of their communities and that they hold a strong desire to influence the decision-making process. This article will be of interest to researchers concerned with creative methodologies designed to elici...

The transformative and emancipatory potential of participatory evaluation: Reflections from a participatory action research study with war-affected young mothers
(2019)
Worthen, Miranda; Veale, Angela; McKay, Susan; Wessells, Michael
Abstract:
The Participatory Action Research (PAR) study with Young Mothers in Liberia, Sierra Leone and northern Uganda which took place from 2006 to 2009 aimed to understand what ‘reintegration’ meant to young mothers formerly associated with armed groups. It also implemented social action initiatives designed by study participants to promote their wellbeing and achieve reintegration. We evaluated the study using multiple participatory evaluation methods, situating evaluation as part of the cycle of research and action. This approach facilitated young mothers’ participation in developing the criteria by which the study and its reintegration outcomes would be judged. We describe each method and what we uniquely learned from using a participatory evaluation approach. We discuss how this approach is well-suited for complex studies, can enhance data quality, increases capacity of all involved in the evaluation and supports the critical reflexivity necessary for participatory studies to succeed.

The value of groupwork knowledge and skills in focus group research: A focus group approach with marginalized teens regarding access to third-level education
(2019)
Jenkinson, Hilary; Leahy, Pat; Scanlon, Margaret; Powell, Fred; Byrne, Olive
Abstract:
This article explores the value of applying groupwork expertise and skills in conducting focus group research. It identifies and provides an analysis of comparisons between the arenas of focus group moderation and social groupwork facilitation drawing from literature from both fields. In addition, the article discusses key skills needed by focus group moderators highlighting how these are also foundational social groupwork competencies. The article draws from the authors’ experiences of designing and facilitating focus groups with teenagers as part of a 2-year research study examining the perceptions and experiences of young people from marginalized communities in relation to accessing third-level education. In light of this analysis, the authors assert that some developments in focus group research methodology have resulted in a greater degree of alignment between these two spheres and that focus group moderation is enhanced and rendered increasingly effective when groupwork skills...

Qualitative Research In Ireland: Archiving Strategies and Development
(2011)
Gray, Jane; O'Carroll, Aileen
Abstract:
The Irish Qualitative Data Archive (IQDA) was established in 2008 with initial funding for three years under the fourth cycle of the Irish Government’s Programme for Research in Third Level Institutions (PRTLI4). IQDA aims to become the central access point for Irish qualitative social science data, including interviews, pictures and other non-numerical material. We have established protocols to ensure that newly generated qualitative data are documented and stored in ways that facilitate sharing and re-use through online access. Currently we are developing our digital infrastructure, piloting a number of initial collections and building a catalogue of Irish qualitative research. The catalogue has already begun the process of mapping potentially available data, and on the basis of that survey we provide an overview of the kinds of qualitative data that could be archived in Ireland. This paper also reports on: the funding situation for social science research and policies in relation...

Exploring the Relationship between Design Science Research and Innovation: A Case Study of Innovation at Chevron
(2011)
Anderson, Jack; Donnellan, Brian; Hevner, Alan
Abstract:
What is the relationship between design science research and innovation? Our industry-academic collaboration poses this intriguing question and suggests a context and an experimental design for its study. We wish to understand the synergies between the active research areas of DSR and innovation by exploring their overlapping concepts and identifying unique ideas in each that have the potential to inform the other. We present a case study of an actual innovation process in Chevron as a source of empirical data for the exploration and subsequent analysis of how the application of DSR guidelines might inform the practical implementation of innovation processes.

The Use of Newspapers as a Source for Musicological Research: A Case Study of Dublin Musical Life 1840–44
(2011)
Ferris, Catherine
Abstract:
Due to a paucity of primary sources, research on music in nineteenth-century Ireland is largely dependent on newspapers as source material. However, to date, no comprehensive examination has been conducted into the musical identities of these newspapers, the bias which influenced their output, or the manner in which they could or should be utilized for musicological research. Newspapers are unique sources, providing thorough accounts of everyday life, published commercially for public consumption, necessarily lacking selectivity or perspective. Their value lies in the detailed, descriptive level of information which contemporary reporting facilitated, enabling research on subjects such as musician’s everyday activities, specific areas of musical life, the relationship between the press and musical institutions and the commerciality of music. However, newspapers are written from a particular viewpoint and for a particular readership, and like any other biased sources, they must be us...

Positioning living labs within action design research: preliminary findings from a systematic literature review
(2017)
Maccani, Giovanni; McLoughlin, Shane; Prendergast, David; Donnellan, Brian
Abstract:
In recent years, Living Labs (LLs) are emerging as relevant design methodologies among IS researchers. Prior research leveraged Action Design Research (ADR) to position LLs within this discipline. Through a systematic literature review, this paper proposes the positioning of LLs’ methodologies within ADR. Based on preliminary findings of this study, we argue that, whilst LL’s offer an opportunity to advance learning in ADR in several ways, some critical divergences can be identified in the literature to-date between the two methodologies.

Reflections on ‘reflection’ in Action Research

Reflections on ‘reflection’ in Action Research
(2015)
Costello, Gabriel J.; Conboy, Kieran; Donnellan, Brian
Abstract:
There is wide agreement in the literature that “reflection” is a critical component of any good research, but certainly in the methodology of action research (AR). Despite consensus regarding its importance, this paper argues that there is little practical guidance for management researchers on how to carry out the process of reflection. The work is presented in the context of a case study of innovation in APC Ireland, a subsidiary of the critical power and cooling services division of the Schneider Electric Corporation. The study proposes to make a contribution by providing a questionnaire to assist the process of reflection in the course of AR cycles. The questionnaire provides a structured mechanism to assist both the practitioner and researcher. The instrument was developed from engagement with the psychology literature and it is suggested as a methodological plug-in to Davison et al’s Principles of Canonical Action Research.

Abstract:
Cross-national research is plagued by many obstacles. This article focuses on one of these obstacles: the fact that research in more than one country usually involves respondents with different native languages. We investigated whether the language of the questionnaire influences response patterns. More specifically we tested whether responding in a common language (English) leads to a homogenization of responses across countries, hence obscuring national differences. We tested this hypothesis with a sample of 3419 undergraduate students in 24 countries. Half the students in each country received an English-language questionnaire, while the other half received the same questionnaire in their native language. Three types of questions were included in the questionnaire: questions about cultural norms and values, questions about characteristics of the ideal type of jobs that students would prefer after graduation, and questions about the reasons for choosing particular electives in the...

Abstract:
Wepropose solutions to two recurring problems in cross-national research: response style differences and language bias. In order to do so, we conduct a methodological comparison of two different response formats—rating and ranking. For rating, we assess the effect of changing the commonly used 5-point Likert scales to 7-point Likert scales. For ranking, we evaluate the validity of presenting respondents with short scenarios for which they need to rank their top 3 solutions. Our results – based on two studies of 1965 undergraduate and 1714 MBA students in 16 different countries – confirm our hypotheses that both solutions reduce response and language bias, but show that ranking generally is a superior solution. These findings allow researchers to have greater confidence in the validity of crossnational differences if these response formats are used, instead of the more traditional 5- point Likert scales. In addition, our findings have several practical implications for multinational ...

Dialogical Action Research: A Case Study
(2011)
Costello, Gabriel J.; Donnellan, Brian
Abstract:
Action Research (AR) originated from the work of Kurt Lewin during the 1940s and has been summarised as an approach that “combines theory and practice (and researchers and practitioners) through change and reflection in an immediate problematic situation within a mutually acceptable ethical framework” (Avison et al., 1999 p 94). The application of AR has not been without controversy particularly in debates with positivist science on the justification and generation of knowledge. These arguments were addressed by Susman & Evered (1978) in their influential description of AR as consisting of a cyclical process involving five phases: diagnosing, action planning, action taking, evaluating, and specifying learning. The focus of AR is to address real-life problems through intervention together with the research objective of making a contribution to knowledge. Coghlan and Brannick (2005 p 125) emphasise the importance of the social and academic...
