Abstract
Researcher Bias (RB) occurs when researchers influence the results of an\nempirical study based on their expectations.RB might be due to the use of\nQuestionable Research Practices(QRPs). In research fields like medicine,\nblinding techniques have been applied to counteract RB. We conducted an\nexplorative qualitative survey to investigate RB in Software Engineering\n(SE)experiments, with respect to (i) QRPs potentially leading to RB, (ii)\ncauses behind RB, and (iii) possible actions to counteract including blinding\ntechniques. Data collection was based on semi-structured interviews. We\ninterviewed nine active experts in the empirical SE community. We then analyzed\nthe transcripts of these interviews through thematic analysis. We found that\nsome QRPs are acceptable in certain cases. Also, it appears that the presence\nof RB is perceived in SE and, to counteract RB, a number of solutions have been\nhighlighted: some are intended for SE researchers and others for the boards of\nSE research outlets.\n
