Just recorded all my lectures for Quantitative Social Science Methods, I -- the first course in the Harvard Government Dept graduate methods sequence -- and am making them available publicly here: youtube.com/playlist?list=… I hope you find them useful for your course, or yourself

reupping this cuz many of you are now fortunate enough to have been accepted into PhD programs of your choice. If you can take 5 mins to contribute what you learnt and/or deposit your SOPs/CVs into the Google Drive, the next batch of applicants will be grateful! cc Megan Gorges

An exciting study to be part of

I need more Econs (especially labor/applied folks) to read and cite this paper. Don't worry, it has a "causal/experimental estimate! And qual work on the mechanisms! "The Mark of a Woman’s Record: Gender and Academic Performance in Hiring" (Quadlin 2018) journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Nelson | @[email protected]. This thread sums up our intro & the featured articles. journals.sagepub.com/toc/smr/51/4 [1/19]

We started an awesome-list for computational social science GESIS @gesisorg.bsky.social. Everyone can contribute and help to make this list truly awesome! github.com/gesiscss/aweso…

One day I will write something longer about the value of qualitative research methods for quantitative (esp. applied micro) researchers. But 👇 is a short thread TLDR: Qual methods super useful even if you never present/analyze qual data in published work #ResearchMethods
