External Validity: From Do-Calculus to Transportability Across Populations (2014, neutral): “…such as “exter-nal validity” (Campbell and Stanley (1963), Man-ski (2007)), “heterogeneity” (H¨oﬂer, Gloster and Hoyer (2010)), “quasi-experiments” (Shadish, Cook and Campbell (2002), Chapter 3; Adelman (1991)), 1 consists primarily of “threats,” namely, explanations of what may go wrong when we…”
Complex problem solving: a case for complex cognition? (2010, background): “The reason for this procedure comes from the striving for internal validity (see, e.g., Shadish et al. 2002), which guarantees correct evaluation of postulated causal relationships.”
Third wave of measurement in the self-regulated learning field: when measurement and intervention come hand in hand (2016, methodology): “Often, measurement + intervention methods are used in longitudinal designs or even time-series designs (Shadish et al., 2002).”
How Methodological Features Affect Effect Sizes in Education (2016, background): “As noted earlier, Slavin & Madden (2011) found substantial differences in effect sizes within WWC-accepted studies between measures inherent to (or over-aligned with) the treatment as opposed to those that were independent of the treatment.”
Interrupted time series regression for the evaluation of public health interventions: a tutorial (2016, unknown): “Other articles have outlined the design and highlighted the strengths and limitations of ITS.(1,5,12,13) Further methodological papers have described some of the more specific in-depth modelling techniques that may be employed by those familiar with the analysis of time series data.”
Publication Bias in Meta-Analysis (2006, background): “Parallels to the threats to the validity of primary research have been uncovered at every step of the systematic review process (Cooper, 1998; Shadish et al., 2002).”
Fear Appeals and Information Security Behaviors: An Empirical Study (2010, unknown): “As mentioned previously, a third group (group 3), subjected to the fear appeal treatment and the posttest survey only, makes it possible to account for testing effects, thereby providing some assurance of internal validity (Shadish et al. 2001).”
Understanding and Using Mediators and Moderators (2008, unknown): “This notion is widely known as the internal validity of an experiment (Cook and Campbell 1979; Shadish et al. 2002).”
Does Remediation Work for All Students? How the Effects of Postsecondary Remedial and Developmental Courses Vary by Level of Academic Preparation (2010, background): “The RD design assumes that students cannot manipulate their scores to make themselves fall just above or below the cutoff, and as such, the cutoff score is truly exogenous to the outcome (McCall & Bielby, 2012; Shadish et al., 2002).”
