Is anyone aware of any survey or interview studies on qualitative researchers' attitudes towards (or perhaps even resistance to) #OpenScience? Many thanks! 🙏

Thats great! 416 experienced qualitative researchers from 38 countries reject the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) applications for Big Q Qualitative approaches, such as reflexive thematic analysis, or various phenomenological approaches.
They describe three primary reasons for the rejection:
1. GenAI as simulated intelligence is incapable of meaning making
2. Qualitative research should remain a distinctly human practice
3. The established manifold harms of GenAI, especially to the environment and workers in the Global South
"[...] the algorithmic patterns upon which GenAI operates predisposes GenAI to identify, replicate and reinforce dominant language and patterns; risking the further quieting of marginal voices and practices, including those of critical scholars. The voices and practices of people who live/breathe/feel/imagine/construct knowledge in the maroons of life – along with their stunning/quirky/complex/unpredictable ways – may be lost or worse; sacrificed."
