Digital Technologies and Sampling. Comparing Estimates From Different Recruitment - Approaches Within the GESIS Panel.dbd.
Using a dataset of the GESIS Panel.dbd from 2023, this article examines AI use and attitudes in Germany. Almost half of the respondents had tried ChatGPT while one in five had not heard of it.

An analysis of 178 studies submitted to major German panels reveals persistent publication bias in science—but also factors that reduce its risk.
Experimental study design, third-party funding, and preregistration of hypotheses stand out as key predictors of lower publication bias.
