Evaluating Software Supply Chain Security in Research Software
The security of research software is essential for ensuring the integrity and reproducibility of scientific results. However, research software security is still largely unexplored. Due to its dependence on open source components and distributed development practices, research software is particularly vulnerable to supply chain attacks. This study analyses 3,248 high-quality, largely peer-reviewed research software repositories using the OpenSSF Scorecard. We find a generally weak security post…

Breaking New Ground in Software Defect Prediction: Introducing Practical and Actionable Metrics with Superior Predictive Power for Enhanced Decision-Making
Software defect prediction using code metrics has been extensively researched over the past five decades. However, prediction harnessing non-software metrics is under-researched. Considering that the root cause of software defects is often attributed to human error, human factors theory might offer key forecasting metrics for actionable insights. This paper explores automated software defect prediction at the method level based on the developers' coding habits. First, we propose a framework for…

Psychological safety in software workplaces: A systematic literature review
Context: Psychological safety (PS) is an important factor influencing team well-being and performance, particularly in collaborative and dynamic domains such as software development. Despite its acknowledged significance, research on PS within the field of software engineering remains limited. The socio-technical complexities and fast-paced nature of software development present challenges to cultivating PS. To the best of our knowledge, no systematic secondary study has synthesized existing kn…
