Summer Workshop on Data Analysis for Undergraduate PoliticalScience Faculty; Summer 1992; Columbus, Ohio

俄亥俄州立大学政治科学系与美国政治科学协会联合举办了为期三周的夏季（1992年）关于统计数据分析的教学和研究应用的讲习班。总体目标是通过获取关于政治和相关现象的大量个人和集体、公民和领导人的数据，加强本科生对政治科学家研究实践的指导。这包括一些民主国家、国际关系、州议员选举、美国国会投票、总统选举和美国最高法院的数据。政治科学研究的一个特点是越来越重视跨时间的系统观察。除了使用从双变量交叉表到多变量分析的各种统计技术外，还将进行数据分析比较优势的实验，使用大型计算机上的程序，而不是为微型计算机处理而设计的程序。

The Political Science Department of The Ohio State University in conjunction with the American Political Science Association is conducting a three-week summer (1992) workshop on the teaching and research applications of statistical data analysis. The general objective is to enhance the instruction of undergraduates in the research practices of political scientists with access to a large variety of individual and aggregate, citizen and leader data on political and related phenomena. This includes data on a number of democratic nations, international relations, elections of members of state legislators, voting in the U.S. Congress, presidential elections, and the U.S. Supreme Court. One of the hallmarks of political science research has been a growing attention to systematic observation across time. In addition to using a variety of statistical techniques, from bi-variate cross- tabulations to multi-variate analysis, experimentation with the comparative advantages of data analysis, using programs on large mainframe computers, as opposed to programs designed for microcomputer processing, will be conducted.
