Workshop "Making friends of “limitations”: Strategies for reporting & contextualizing research limitations"

Scholars are often afraid of reporting the limitations of their research, concerned that doing so will undermine their chances for publication. In fact, the opposite is true. This workshop discusses the role of reporting limitations in research, why they can help strengthen your chances for publication, and how to use them to your advantage.
