Description
Questionable research practices threaten the credibility of HomVEE designations for “evidence-based early childhood home visiting service delivery models”. Internationally accepted standards for reporting and interpreting the results of reviews—including the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE)—recommend that reviews take steps to mitigate bias associated with selective non-reporting of results and other questionable research practices. Moreover, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) policies require that contractors and grantees engage in transparent and open sciences practices. We propose that HomVEE adopt standards to mitigate the effects of questionable research practices, which would be consistent with international guidelines and with complementary HHS policies and procedures.
