Practical recommendations from a multi-perspective needs and challenges assessment of citizen science games
Citizen science games are an increasingly popular form of citizen science, in which volunteer participants engage in scientific research while playing a game. Their success depends on a diverse set of stakeholders working together–scientists, volunteers, and game developers. Yet the potential needs of these stakeholder groups and their possible tensions are poorly understood. To identify these needs and possible tensions, we conducted a qualitative data analysis of two years of ethnographic research and 57 interviews with stakeholders from 10 citizen science games, following a combination of grounded theory and reflexive thematic analysis. We identify individual stakeholder needs as well as important barriers to citizen science game success. These include the ambiguous allocation of developer roles, limited resources and funding dependencies, the need for a citizen science game community, and science–game tensions. We derive recommendations for addressing these barriers.
Game Programming Patterns
I’m here to help! Game Programming Patterns is a collection of patterns I found in games that make code cleaner, easier to understand, and faster.
What stories should we tell about scientific progress now?
In search of the mysterious fruits of basic science
"experiments to be in the realm of search and discovery, enabling curation, trust signals, and other approaches that build on the modular elements of science" #modularscience #atscience Congrats to the whole @openrxiv.bsky.social team!! So exciting.

I am suggesting a game “Find a fake in Scientific Reports” 1. Open nature.com/srep/, peek your section. (Physical sciences for me) 2. Start a timer. 3. Find a faked paper 4. Stop the timer 5. Report your time and PPI* for corresponding author #ResearchIntegrity *PubPeer Index
