q2 i? Search-result counts in IJAIED and Google Scholar indicate an imbalance in research effort across learning contexts, with workplace learning, professional learning and continuing education sparsely covered. → Pammer-Schindler 2021

Evidence¶

Pammer-Schindler 2021¶

Pammer-Schindler, V. & Rosé, C. (2021). Data-Related Ethics Issues in Technologies for Informal Professional Learning. International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40593-021-00259-x

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2

Indicative full-text search counts dated March 2, 2020 (e.g., IJAIED: K-12 16, higher education 21, workplace learning 1, professional learning 0); the authors call the numbers "merely indicative". No effect sizes.

"While these numbers are merely indicative, they do show an imbalance in how research effort has been invested across different learning contexts, where the number of publications serves as proxy for invested research effort."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• AIED conference authorship is strongly WEIRD-imbalanced, with 90% of first authors from WEIRD institutions and no African first authors — related
• Cultural variations exist in emotion and other psychological topics of interest to AIED, so psychology research influencing AIED is likely WEIRD-imbalanced — related
