communication, dissemination, & teamworkDigital Scholar Webinar: Accelerating systematic review studies using the online tool Covidence
Literature reviews, in particular systematic reviews, are invaluable to represent the latest and most complete information available on a particular topic or intervention, but they can be time consuming. This webinar explores a digital application called Covidence that is designed to accelerate the systematic review process.
study & site management, research & study conductDigital Scholar Webinar: Using the research platform TurkPrime to crowdsource data for the health sciences

study & site management, research & study conductDigital Scholar Webinar: Recruiting study participants online using Amazon's Mechanical Turk
Crowdsourcing has had a dramatic impact on the speed and scale at which scientific research can be conducted. This webinar summarizes what is known about MTurk sample composition and data quality with an emphasis on findings relevant to clinical psychological research. It then addresses methodological issues with using MTurk--many of which are common to other nonprobability samples but unfamiliar to clinical science researchers--and suggests concrete steps to avoid these issues or minimize their impact.
