11 maart/march in Utrecht! @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social

The dept. of Methods and Statistics in Utrecht, NL offers about week-long 20 courses this summer on e.g.:

- Survey design and analysis
- Structural Equation Modeling
- Text mining in R and Python

Utrecht is lovely in summer!
For all courses, and more info: utrechtsummerschool.nl/courses/by_t...

A friendly reminder that you can still get decent (60%) response rates on probability samples but it takes more money than our research infrastructure can support after 25+ years of federal divestment from the basic social sciences and "in silico" surveys and "digital twins" are not the solution.

📢 The #ESRA25 call for abstracts is now open! And so many amazing sessions to choose from 🎉
