A focused space for field, laboratory, natural, and online experiments that push sociological theory forward. Early-stage and pre-registered studies are especially welcome.

Call for abstracts

Experimental sociology at any stage

We invite extended abstracts on sociological research that uses field, laboratory, natural, or online experiments. Studies that are yet to be pre-registered are especially welcome.

The workshop offers a platform to refine experimental designs, discuss causal mechanisms, and grow the network of experimental sociologists.

  • A dedicated discussant for every submission
  • Open floor discussion with time to respond
  • Designed for early career researchers (and senior scholars too)
1250-word extended abstracts Field · Lab · Natural · Online Pre-registration encouraged
