Federal and state governments make many large data sets available, covering topics as diverse as student learning, teacher tenure, adolescent science and math proficiency, school funding, adult literacy, census data, and much more. Repositories such as the UIUC IDEALS, Michigan ICPSR and others make research data sets available. Data to answer pressing research questions may have already been collected, but secondary data analysis poses specific challenges. This course provides instruction, practice (SPSS or R, student chooses), and feedback on •IRB/privacy/confidentiality •funding for/workshops on secondary data analysis •using data codebooks •operationalizing constructs with extant items and questionnaires •literature review for secondary data analysis •exploratory factor analysis, reliability, validity •merging files, aggregating, disaggregating, and combining variables to identify subgroups •keeping track of data steps •using weights to account for sampling •handling missing data •screening for non-independence •using dataset documentation in writing for publication. The course combines individual assignments and group projects that could result in a publishable paper. Questions? Contact the instructor at jcromley@illinois.edu. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
