Learning how to collect and analyse longitudinal data is therefore a desirable skill to a quantitative social scientist’s methodological toolkit.
In this short course, you will learn how to leverage panel data to address two common questions in the social sciences: causal inference and reciprocal relationships. First, we will discuss how to use longitudinal data to infer causal effects based on the potential outcomes framework, with a focus on the difference-in-differences estimator. Second, we will discuss how longitudinal data can be powerful at depicting reciprocal relationships and controlling for reverse causality using cross-lagged panel models. In both cases, we will learn the intuition of the basic setup, understand some of its strengths and limitations, and discuss some recent developments.
Adopting a hands-on approach, we will also draw on real-world applications using R and practical exercises.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_column_text]Session outcomes:
