Abstract:While machine learning has gained substantial attention and popularity in many scientific fields, it is largely unexplored for the detection of careless responding in survey data. On the one hand, machine learning algorithms can be highly powerful tools due to their flexibility. On the other hand, science based on machine learning has been criticized in the literature for a lack of reproducibility. We assess the potential and the pitfalls of machine learning approaches for identifying careless respondents from… Show more
