Extended abstracts (1250 words max.) are invited on any sociological research that uses field, laboratory, natural, or online experiments. Studies that are yet to be pre-registered are especially welcome.
The growing interest in causal explanations and social mechanisms through well-constructed sociological theories has motivated many researchers to turn to experimental research design. We hope that this online workshop will provide early career sociologists, as well as senior scholars, with a platform to discuss their new experimental research ideas and help build a network of experimental sociologists.
During the workshop, there will be a dedicated discussant for each extended abstract in addition to an open floor discussion and an opportunity to respond to the comments by the presenting author. We encourage contributions from early career researchers, but more senior scholars are welcome to submit too.
We offer early career researchers to develop, pre-register, and run an experimental study. The monetary value of the award is 1,250 GBP. The recipient of the award will have the possibility to run the experiment at the ESSEXLab free of charge (i.e., the money from the award will be used exclusively to pay participants). Please see eligibility requirements and other details here. The recipient of the award will have the chance to attend one of the quantitative courses organised by the Essex Summer School (ESS) free of charge as well.
The workshop hosts a keynote speech to be delivered by Robb Willer (Stanford University). The event will take place fully online and without registration fee.
Please submit your extended abstract to here
The authors will be notified about the outcome of their submission in mid April. The detailed schedule of the workshop will be announced in early May.
The workshop is organised by Burak Sonmez (University College London), Ozan Aksoy (University College London) and Sergio Lo Iacono (University of Essex).
