The biweekly seminar accompanies the lecture and provides opportunities to deepen and apply the concepts introduced there. Each session combines three complementary elements: (1) Reflect and clarify, revisiting key ideas from the lecture, discussing methodological questions, and clarifying uncertainties; (2) Apply and develop, applying methodological principles to the students’ own planned quantitative research projects and discussing and refining their research decisions; and (3) Analyze and interpret, working with data from the European Social Survey (ESS) in R to develop practical data analysis skills and interpret quantitative results in relation to substantive research questions.

Students deepen their understanding of quantitative research methods by applying methodological concepts to concrete research questions. By the end of the seminar, they should be able to connect research questions and hypotheses with appropriate choices concerning research design, sampling, operationalization, and data analysis. They will also develop practical skills in working with quantitative data in R, selecting appropriate analytical approaches, interpreting statistical results, and critically evaluating the conclusions that can be drawn from quantitative evidence.
