Seminar: "Does Nonrandom Participation in Experiments Matter?"

Jason Barabas, Stony Brook University; Many experiments use “opt-in” convenience samples from unknown populations, but does this mean that the results do not generalize?

12:00pm – 1:30pm
Silsby 119
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Lectures & Seminars

We conduct experiments that select and assign subjects to modes randomly in an attempt to (1) document patterns of nonrandom participation in experiments and (2) statistically adjust our estimates to offset selection biases.
