Despite calls for open science reforms in special education research, little is known about the perceptions or practices of special education researchers regarding open science. In this study, we modified the Open Science Survey to conduct a preliminary examination of the knowledge, attitudes, perceived norms, and behavioral intent of 155 special education researchers for three open practices: preregistering studies, posting preprints, and sharing data. Respondents reported favorable attitudes toward each of the practices but low levels of implementation knowledge. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that knowledge, attitudes, career stage, and methodological preference significantly predicted intent to engage in these open practices. We provide recommendations from these findings to inform efforts to increase open science uptake in the field.

特殊教育研究人员的知识、态度和开放实践的使用报告

尽管呼吁对特殊教育研究进行开放科学改革，但人们对特殊教育研究人员对开放科学的看法或实践知之甚少。在这项研究中，我们修改了开放科学调查，对 155 名特殊教育研究人员的知识、态度、感知规范和行为意图进行了初步检查，以进行三种开放实践：预注册研究、发布预印本和共享数据。受访者表示对每种做法都持积极态度，但实施知识水平较低。多元线性回归分析显示，知识、态度、职业阶段和方法偏好可以显着预测参与这些开放实践的意图。我们根据这些发现提供建议，为提高该领域开放科学的采用提供信息。
