Advanced Experimental Methods and Panel Design for the Social Sciences
This is a two-day workshop led by Professor Diana C. Mutz (University of Pennsylvania), a leading scholar in experimental political science. The workshop will introduce and discuss advanced experimental techniques, and panel designs relevant for survey-based social science research. The workshop is physically in Bergen, and open to participants from all KODEM-affiliated institutions.

Mutz is also part of the International Scientific Advisory Board for KODEM.
This is a two-day workshop at the University of Bergen. The workshop will introduce and discuss advanced experimental and panel analysis techniques being used to advance experimental and survey research in the social sciences. The emphasis will be on improving research designs through deeper understanding of how we are partitioning variance using various experimental and panel approaches. Day 1 will include lectures covering common pitfalls in experimental design and analyses, making the most of within-subject/repeated measures designs, panel design and analysis techniques that take advantage of their unique strengths. Day 2 will provide participants with the opportunity to present and receive feedback on their research designs, offering a unique opportunity for tailored methodological advice. The workshop is open to participants from the University of Bergen and other KODEM-affiliated institutions. Please register before 22 April by .
ÌýThe workshop is free of charge, but participants must cover their own travel, food and accommodation. All participants will be invited to a joint dinner on Day 1.Ìý
