  • A reflection on open science badges

    Open AccessHeidi M LevittARTICLEQualitative Psychology2026

    This editorial considers the current practice of assigning badges for articles in journals that adhere to the values of open science, irrespective of their methods or epistemological perspectives. Although many virtues of open science exist, I question practices of open science that may support some epistemological approaches to science while devaluing or compromising others. Specifically, I am concerned that unreflective practices marginalize th…

    Bi+ men have disproportionately high rates of mental health, physical health and substance use concerns. According to minority stress theory, societal stigma adversely impacts health outcomes for LGBTQ+ individuals. This study focused on improving health outcomes for bi+ men, a group that has received little focus in the literature outside of focusing on sexual health. The current intervention aimed to help bi+ men process through previous biphob…

  • The damaging legacy of damage‐centered LGBTIQ+ research

    Open AccessRebecca Cipollina, Mollie A Ruben et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Issues2024Citada por: 7Referências: 116

    Research on LGBTIQ+ populations has focused primarily on identifying problems in the community (e.g., health disparities) and their predictors (e.g., minority stressors, discrimination). Scholars have argued that the approach of highlighting “damage” or deficits has been helpful for advocacy but has also harmed this community by perpetuating stereotypes (e.g., LGBTIQ+ individuals are unhealthy), ignoring or devaluing positive LGBTIQ+ experiences,…

  • Toward a Meta-Psychological Methodology

    Open AccessHeidi M LevittARTICLEJournal of Humanistic Psychology2024Referências: 11

    In this brief article, I consider two concepts that Maslow advances in Toward a Humanistic Biology that relate to the role of scientific observation in psychological research and were forward-thinking at his writing. These are the importance of the humanistic concept of experiencing as a way of developing understanding, and the recognition of the impact of the perceptive capacities of observers. I consider these concepts in light of advances in c…

  • Broadening the evidentiary basis for clinical practice guidelines

    Heidi M Levitt, Andreas Hamburger et al.ARTICLEAmerican Psychologist2024

These guidelines have typically been based on evidence from meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials with minimal consideration of findings from qualitative research designs. This said, there has been growing interest in incorporating qualitative research in guideline de…
