Social Science and Statistics: A Conference in Honor of Clifford C. Clogg

该奖项支持旨在鼓励社会科学家、人口学家和统计学家之间的跨学科工作的会议。这次会议是为了纪念已故的Clifford C.Clogg，他是宾夕法尼亚州立大学的杰出社会学教授和统计学教授，由美国统计协会的政府统计和社会统计部和美国社会学协会的方法论会议共同主办。会议将邀请在劳动力人口统计学、人口统计学方法、社会科学中的潜变量模型、官方统计、分类数据分析、混合模型、缺失数据分析以及模型选择指数和策略等重要领域举行会议。此外，贡献的会议和海报会议允许新的研究人员与受邀参与者和其他与会者分享他们的研究成果，并将为继续现有的合作和刺激这些学科之间的新互动提供独特的机会。

This award supports a conference designed to encourage interdisciplinary work between social scientists, demographers, and statisticians. The conference honors the late Clifford C. Clogg, Distinguished Professor of Sociology and Professor of Statistics, Pennsylvania State University and is co-sponsored by the Government Statistics and Social Statistics Section of the American Statistical Association and the Methodology Session of the American Sociological Association. The conference will have invited sessions in the important areas of Labor Force Demography, Demographic Methodology, Latent Variable Models in Social Science, Official Statistics, Categorical Data Analysis, Mixture Models, Analysis of Missing Data, and Model Selection Indices and Strategies. In addition, contributed sessions and poster sessions allow new researchers to share their research with the invited participants and other attendees, and will provide a unique opportunity for continuing existing collaborations and stimulating new interactions between these disciplines.
