Interviewed by Raquel Paraíso, 10/05/2020.
The COVID-19 pandemic has raised a range of concerns and questions for social science researchers. For many qualitative researchers, research sites are no longer accessible, and many data collection methods are no longer feasible. Critical questions about what qualitative research can and even should do during times of physical distancing are arising, particularly among graduate students. Specifically, many graduate students with qualitative dissertation work in development or already underway are now facing notable delays to their progress toward completion, with questions about a “research restart” pointing to uncertainty.
This webinar aims to address some of the common concerns that graduate students conducting qualitative research are now navigating. Specifically, in this webinar, the following will be explored: the complicated ethics of “continuing research” during uncertain times; the value of historicizing methodological practice when designing and re-designing qualitative research methodologies and methods; and virtual methodologies and methods for carrying out qualitative research.
With this project I wanted to dive into the process of memory and how one recalls upon memory. I also wanted to explore the validity of memory and how we can fall into nostalgia and never really escape its clutches.
From a Bayesian point of view, the selection of a particular model from a universe of possible models can be characterized as a problem of uncertainty. The method of Bayesian model averaging quantifies model uncertainty by recognizing that not all models are equally good from a predictive point of view. Rather than choosing one model and assuming that the chosen model is the one that generated the data Bayesian model averaging obtains a weighted combination of the parameters of a subset of possible models, weighted by each models’ posterior model probability. This workshop provides an overview of Bayesian model averaging with a focus on recent developments and applications to propensity score analysis, missing data, and probabilistic forecasting of relevance to social science research.
