#quantitativemethods — Public Fediverse posts

Two articles on the role of #MedicalStatistics in #HealthSciences which are a good #CPD read for both #QuantitativeMethods experts as well as health content experts:

Medical statisticians: Always on tap, but never on top?
https://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/id/eprint/211342/

And this paper aims to provide guidance on why, when and on what to consult with statisticians when setting up a research project

My previous pinned #introductionpost post is quite old, so here's a new go ...

I teach #linguistics at the #UniversityOfAlberta. Professional interests include #AccessiblePedagogy, #Phonetics, #QuantitativeMethods (#statistics), #SpeechTechnology, #InternetLinguistics, #WritingSystems, and #EnglishSpellingReform

Outside of work, I like #ScottishCountryDancing, #Canoeing, and various nerdy pursuits such as #TTRPGs and #StarTrek. 🤓

I often look at papers where authors used a lot of effort to shoehorn a #LongitudinalAnalysis into a trajectory or #MixedModels that do not quite the job the team wants.

Analysing longitudinal data (esp. w time-varying covariates) via G-Estimation is an alternative for consideration:

The underlying thinking is not entirely different, but often one needs only a little step / laterality to get a new view on an analysis problem.

Here's a new #introduction post to celebrate moving to this new server. (Previously @[email protected])

I'm a #linguistics instructor at the University of Alberta. Academic interests include #phonetics, #quantitativeMethods (#statistics), and #speechTechnology. Working on #accessiblePedagogy in all my teaching. Hobby interests include #internetLinguistics, #spellingReform, and #ScottishCountryDancing. 🤓

Fellow Mastodonians, what are your favorite texts on constructing research questions in the social sciences?

So far, the best I've encountered is White's Developing Research Questions: https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/developing-research-questions-9781137490476/

Do you know of any other good resources? It can be anything from textbooks to applied examples or even slides for use in teaching. Anything goes!

In #research, digital #DataCollection has become standard for #quantitative #interviews. There are great #OpenSource #DigitalDataCollection tools for #offline #questionnaires:

#OpenDataKit – I have made excellent experience with #ODK in several #surveys:
http://opendatakit.org

ODK has a large ecosystem, e.g.:

- #KoBoToolbox:

- #Enketo – offline web forms:
