1/7 🎉 Happy to share our paper "Normalizing Open Science Practice: Understandings, Evaluations, and Implementations of Open Science Practices in the field of Communication", with Gregory P. Perreault, published in JMCQ! 📚✨ #OpenScience journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10…

2/7 Our preregistered qualitative study uses Normalization Process Theory to explore how open science is being integrated into mass communication. We conducted 19 in-depth interviews with scholars worldwide. Huge thanks to all participants!

3/7 Findings show that scholars are motivated by idealistic, research-oriented, and political reasons. However, concerns about feasibility and participant privacy remain. Key issues of coherence in open science practices were identified.
