Summer Institute on Research Methods in Cultural Anthropology

该研究项目将支持第二个为期三年的文化人类学人种学方法暑期讲习班项目。前三次研讨会在佛罗里达州的盖恩斯维尔举行。12位具有博士学位的文化人类学家将参加前两年在北亚利桑那大学（第三年在佛罗里达大学）举行的为期三周的研讨会，学习最先进的研究方法。重点是微型计算机的应用和认知人类学的先进方法，如共识分析。对1989年夏季12个空缺职位的108份申请表明了这项活动的必要性。这个研讨会很重要，因为社会科学正在发展新的研究方法，如果教师们要进行前沿的科学研究，他们必须保持自己的专业知识。

This research project will support a second three-year program of summer workshops in ethnographic methods in cultural anthropology. The first three workshops were held in Gainesville, Florida. Twelve PhD-level cultural anthropologists will attend a three-week workshop to be held at Northern Arizona University the first two years (and at the University of Florida in the third year), to learn the state-of-the-art in research methods. The emphasis is on micro-computer applications and advanced methods in cognitive anthropology such as consensus analysis. The need for this activity was shown by the submission of 108 applications for the 12 available positions for the summer of 1989. This workshop is important because social science is developing new methods of research and faculty members must maintain their expertise if they are to conduct leading-edge scientific research.
