Research Workshop: Insights into (and from)
Longitudinal Data Analysis
Generously supported by the Experimental Psychology Society
Date: 15-16th June, 2023 (Thursday and Friday)
Cost: Free to attend, but please register via the Eventbrite link below!
Location: University of Dundee, Scotland (specific details will be sent to registered attendees closer to the dates).
Registration: You can register for this event here.
Workshop Aims:
This workshop will bring together Psychology researchers who have an interest in longitudinal data analysis – whether already engaging in longitudinal data or wanting to learn about how to start engaging in longitudinal approaches – to provide an opportunity to discuss some of the challenges and opportunities associated with longitudinal data, as well as different approaches to longitudinal analysis. Longitudinal data are an essential tool for researchers, including in experimental psychology: this approach can help to further our understanding of how different abilities change over time, provide insights into causal relationships between variables, as well as highlight the timing of different events or milestones as they emerge. In this two-day workshop, a conceptual overview of these topics will be examined through presentations and discussions with researchers who are actively engaged with longitudinal data, allowing opportunity to present different perspectives on the benefits, challenges, and approaches to longitudinal data, as well as the opportunity for interactive discussions. Note that, whilst analysis approaches will be discussed, the workshop will not be a practical demonstration of analysis; rather, we aim to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches, examine ways to conduct longitudinal studies, and practical considerations for engaging in this type of research, across stages of planning studies, collecting data, and analysing data.
The workshop will include presentations as well as interactive roundtable discussions, covering key topics related to longitudinal research, including: Introductions to Longitudinal Research; Collecting and Measuring Longitudinal Data; Analysing and Managing Longitudinal Data; and Understanding Longitudinal Data.
Speakers (listed alphabetically):
The workshop will be a two-day event, on Thursday 15th and Friday 16th June, 2023, held at the University of Dundee, Scotland.
The event is free to attend and open to any interested academics, including early career researchers, in the field of Psychology (or related areas) – although attendees must register to attend, using the Eventbrite page which can be found here.
If you have questions about the workshop, please contact Lizzie Bradford (EBradford001@dundee.ac.uk).
We look forward to seeing you in June!
