All Research at the International Socioeconomics Laboratory

The International Socioeconomics Laboratory intends to produce studies based on original findings and extensive data analysis. All researchers at the Laboratory work in groups, using qualitative methods such as scaler surveys, random digit dialing, interviews, polls, etc. as well as quantitative methods which include probability sampling, document review, and equation based collection. By collecting randomized data, researchers are able to form more accurate conclusions. The Laboratory uses JASP, R, and Tableau for data analysis, emphasizing the importance of extensive data analysis that can create a thorough and transparent study that informs readers of results in a comprehensive manner while also establishing limitations. Researchers are taught to use these data analysis programs, to further their research skills and to build upon their empirical studies. All Research at the laboratory falls under one of the four core campaigns: Healthcare, Equality, Education, and Community. Each of these topics are broad enough to allow for a plethora of projects under each campaign pertaining to a range of other fields such as law, medicine, psychology, economics, and social science. The goal of the research at the International Socioeconomics Laboratory is to continue to study and inform the public of the urgency of socioeconomic issues and the extent to which they affect each individual and a number of other fields of study.
