INNOVATIONS IN SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH is an initiative at UNM housed in the department of Political Science. INNOVATIONS invites scholars to present cutting edge, methodologically innovative research at UNM. Below you can find posts about past and future workshops, talks, and events. Email me for details and questions.

Join us on April 9th in Sociology Commons at 10am to learn about text as Data using R!
How can researchers detect discrimination? One way to do so is through an email audit study. In this talk, I will provide an introduction to conducting this type of experiment. Beginning with a brief history of the method, I will then illustrate its use by presenting the results of an audit study on religious discrimination in the American public school system. After highlighting several potential replication issues related to experiments like this, I will close by providing a step-by-step guide to conducting an audit study. This section of the talk will focus particularly on efficient code-based approaches to implementation and collecting and coding outcome data.
Join us for an undergraduate poster session! This is the final project for undergraduates in "Networks & Behavior," a course using R programming to understand network phenomena. See what all these students have learned to do with their R programming skills in this short 8-week course. Support STEM teaching and learn a bit about network analysis yourself! Social Sciences Building Rm 2069 @ 5:15PM March 8.
