There exists no mechanism for federal agencies, national laboratories, industry, and academic institutions to set a national environmental research agenda. Moreover, funding for social science research is inadequate for providing a sound scientific basis for making environmental policy. Despite this lack of leadership, it is quite possible to define an environmental economic research agenda that could lead to improved policies for protecting and managing the environment. The present paper makes some recommendations from an insider's viewpoint.

Big data technology is a new stage of information development. In recent years, it has been widely used in many fields, especially in social science research. This paper analyzes the development status and significance of the combination of big data technology and social science research, on the basis of summarizing and combing the concept of big data and its important role. Taking the application of big data method in the research of innovation education as an example, this paper makes a series of visualization analysis with Citespace software on the related literature with the theme of “big data and innovation education” collected by CNKI, such as annual analysis, literature source analysis, co-occurrence analysis of authors, organization analysis, keyword clustering analysis and keyword timing analysis. This paper also draws the corresponding knowledge mapping, clarifies its research status, hot spots and development trend, and provides scientific basis for the research of innovation education. Thus the paper believes that the research on big data and innovation education needs to strengthen interdisciplinary communication and cooperation, refine and deepen the research theme and content.

In recent years, pre-analysis plans have been adopted by economists in response to concerns raised about robustness and transparency in social science research. By pre-specifying an analysis plan, researchers bind themselves and thus avoid the temptation to data mine or $p$-hack. The application of pre-analysis plans has been most widely used for randomized evaluations, particularly in the field of development economics. The increased use of pre-analysis plans has raised competing concerns that detailed plans are overly restrictive and limit the type of inspiration that only comes from exploring the data. This paper considers these competing views of pre-analysis plans, examines the extent that pre-analysis plans have been used in research conducted by agricultural economists, and discusses the usefulness of pre-analysis plans for non-experimental economic research.
