🚨The Toronto Political Behaviour Workshop is back for its 12th edition! Join us on Nov. 13–14, 2026 @UofT! We welcome paper/poster proposals on any topic in political behaviour, broadly defined! 📅 Submission Deadline: July 11. Apply here: utorontops.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

I am chairing two supercool panels this year at @mpsa.bsky.social. First, "Machine Learning Applications." Fri, April 24, 3:20 to 4:50pm CDT. Lots of stuff about LLMs. Love them, hate them, don't miss them. convention2.allacademic.com/one/mpsa/mps...

It's out, everyone. It's out! Julia is one of the most brilliant translational methodologists I know, and it was a real honor to work with her on this paper. Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback! (BTW, I'm a psychologist now?)

It is always nice to wake up to a FirstView from JREP, but never more so than when you are working with a brilliant student, especially Eden Melles. This article examines how religious identity (Muslim and Christian) shapes Black American political attitudes. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The great @eddelbuettel.com invited me to his STAT447 class at the University of Illinois. If you'd like to hear me speak about the interpretation of statistical models in #RStats, using the {marginaleffects} 📦, check out the video! www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3TX...

I am excited to announce the beta release of @verasight.io’s Free AI Survey Programming Tool: Doc2Survey, that automatically converts any survey drafted in a Word or Google Doc to a programmed Qualtrics survey (.qsf file). We are making Doc2Survey available for free! www.verasight.io/doc2survey

Now more than ever we encounter each other's emotions about politics, on social media and in the news. When do we take strangers' emotional expression seriously, and when do we dismiss it as inappropriate or even insincere? You can find out now in our Cambridge Element!

🎺 Call for proposals 🎺 1️⃣ replicate an existing experiment 2️⃣ run a novel experiment on repdata.com 3️⃣ coauthor with Mary McGrath and me to meta-analyze the replications and existing studies 4️⃣ publish your study details: alexandercoppock.com/replication_... applications open Feb 1 please repost!

After years in academia, I’m exploring data science and research roles in industry. I'm a quant. social scientist (PhD Yale ’24, NYU) focused on causal inference, experiments, and large-scale data. Feel free to get in touch or share; all leads appreciated. [email protected]

Looking for 1-2 papers (and maybe one more discussant) to put together an #APSA2026 panel proposal on recent methodological developments in surveys/experiments (can go either way). Feel free to reach out!

Calling those looking to get feedback on their quant work📢: Join us at @TexasAM for TexMeth2026 this Feb. Great opportunity to connect with the regional community and showcase your research. The sun will still be strong for those coming from the north!🤝📊☀️ Apply: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Currently in FirstView: In “Survey Professionalism: New Evidence from Web Browsing Data,” Bernhard Clemm von Hohenberg, @tiagoventura.bsky.social, Tiago Ventura, @jonathannagler.bsky.social, @ericka.bric.digital, & Magdalena Wojcieszak provide evidence on survey professionalism across three samples.

Needed - larger samples, more realism about (the lack of) heterogeneous treatment effects: -"less than a third of proposed hypotheses were supported... the largest predictor of positive exp. results was sample size" -"moderation hypotheses were rarely significant" academic.oup.com/poq/advance-...

🏆APSA's Experimental Research Section Best Paper Award🏆 Did you present an experiment at APSA2026? Submit your conference paper for the Experimental Research Section's best paper award by April 15, 2026. @sumitra.bsky.social @talbotmandrews.bsky.social and I are excited to read your work!

Currently in FirstView: In “Balancing Precision and Retention in Experimental Design,” @gustavodiaz.org and Erin Rossiter study how experimental design choices can increase precision when estimating treatment effects. Specifically, they examine block-randomized and pre-post designs.

Just over one week to go before the September 16 deadline. Excited to review the applications and engage with folks’ work!

Check out this fascinating paper by my colleagues Erin Rossiter and Jeff Harden. Such a cool design and interesting findings. Plus, Taylor!

"We use real-world data to demonstrate a counterintuitive result: precision gains from block-randomized or pre-post designs can withstand significant sample loss that may arise during implementation." @gustavodiaz.org & Erin Rossiter via @polanalysis.bsky.social doi.org/10.1017/pan....

The Experimental Research section of the American Political Science Association (@experimentsapsa.bsky.social) invites research proposals from post-prospectus PhD students for its Experimental Research Early-Career Fellowship program. Share this post! @apsa.bsky.social, @poscresearch.bsky.social

I'm super excited to be giving a tutorial at the useR conference (Duke) this summer! Let me know if you're thinking about signing up, or if you'll be in Durham and want to chat over coffee. I'd love to connect with other #Rstats enthusiasts!

Virtual and IRL in Ann Arbor seats still available for my @icpsrsummer.bsky.social workshop on Multilevel Modelling in the Social Sciences from July 7-11. It's 40 hours or a semester of content in just 5 days. Bring your project data! myumi.ch/JwM8e #SumProg25 #ICPSR

Thrilled to share my article “The Right Kind of (Gay) Man?” was accepted @thejop.bsky.social I started it as a 1st-year grad student, it became my MA, then a dissertation & job market paper. It’s the piece I’m most proud of (and relieved to finally share) 🏳️‍🌈 www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

Come work with me! McMaster is the best Canadian research university w/a medical school that you've never heard of™! Though there are areas listed, the field is actually wide open! These Research Chairs come with research funding. universityaffairs.ca/search-job/?...

Hey, I'm on the Casual Inference podcast this week! I've been a massive fan of @lucystats.bsky.social and @epiellie.bsky.social since Episode 1 of Casual Inference. Talking to great experts (and conversationalists!) like them was a ton of fun. Thanks so much for the invitation!
