Show Notes

Listen to this interview of Roberto Verdecchia, Assistant Professor, University of Florence, Italy; and also, Per Runeson, Professor, Lund University, Sweden. We talk about their coauthored papers Threats to Validity in Software Engineering Research: A Critical Reflection (IST 2023) and Threats to Validity in Software Engineering — hypocritical paper section or essential analysis? (ESEM 2024).

Per Runeson : "I think what we've seen in our work here on threats to validity — and it was certainly our intention in conducting it in the first place — is, to have the researcher take the initiative and really adopt a reflective attitude. Because, research is not only about investigating facts and testing hypotheses. It's also about reflecting on the learning process, and it's about the extent to which you can trust what you've learned in doing that research, but also it's about the way forward from there, that is, how do we take the work forward into the future."
