The success of my deficiencies: The impact of research failures on ourselves

Impact is often conceptualized as a one-way street: how does the researcher’s findings impact others. We measure how research manuscripts are “picked up” by other scholars or the media. We attend to how the knowledge we generated can be translated to practice. However, the impact game is played in two directions. We simply fail to acknowledge it. When our research goes well, the impact on the researcher is positive; we win awards, gain notoriety in our field, and have the satisfaction of knowing that we made a difference via our research efforts. But research does not always go well. Research can fail. When it does, the impact on us can be negative and profoundly felt. This session will offer reflections on how research failure impacts the individual scholar with an emphasis on how to harness our failures to become better researchers.

Learning objectives:

After this session participants will be able to:

Acknowledge ways in which research can have impact on themselves as individuals and as scholars
Describe at least one strategy for moving forwards after failure.
Discuss how failures can originate from a variety of different sources (e.g., unintended consequences of research, errors of not doubly confirming, letting down mentees)
