It’s been a busy spring for Langer Research Associates. Among other projects, we’re managing U.S. and Canada surveys for the latest round of the Pew Global Attitudes Project; launched a survey on education technology for Digital Promise, the ed tech nonprofit created by an act of Congress; designed and fielded the 50th annual PDK Poll on public attitudes toward public education; and carried out ongoing research on sleep health for the National Sleep Foundation, among other research projects.
We presented two papers at the annual conference of the American Association for Public Opinion Research in Denver in May. Research Analyst Christine Filer presented on measuring work-related sexual harassment, and Research Analyst Sofi Sinozich gave a paper on the 49th annual PDK poll.
Gary Langer has a chapter on probability vs. non-probability methods in the newly published Palgrave Handbook of Survey Research, and our paper on using MRP in state-level election forecasting, by Chad Kiewiet de Jonge, Gary and Sofi, will appear in a forthcoming edition of Public Opinion Quarterly. These follow pieces based on our work in the past year published in Sleep Health and the Journal of the American College of Surgeons.
