SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MPSDS / JPSM Seminar: Adding Modes without Subtracting Quality: Survey Data Collection in Low and Middle-income Countries
DESCRIPTION:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series\nMPSDS M3 Series: Mastery\, Methodology\, Meetups\n\nIn person\, room 1070\, Institute for Social Research and via Zoom. \n\nAdding Modes without Subtracting Quality: Survey Data Collection in Low and Middle-income Countries\n\nThe growth of mobile phones and internet connection in low and middle-income countries (LMIC) may mean that survey data collection in LMIC can advance from face-to-face surveys to additional modes such as web or cell phone surveys. During this seminar\, you will learn which modes are feasible in which contexts with a particular focus on mobile phone surveys.\n\nDr. Abigail (Abba) Greenleaf is an Assistant Professor at Columbia’s Mailman School of Public Health. She received her PhD from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health\, her Master of Public Health from Columbia and BS in public health from George Washington University. She is a public health demographer whose research focuses on (1) women’s reproductive health across geographies and the lifespan and\; (2) intensive longitudinal data collection. By integrating these areas\, she is creating innovative findings for international sexual and reproductive health population sciences. She enjoys leveraging innovative data collection approaches to generate high-frequency\, cost- efficient population data for public health action. Survey research has been a part of her research portfolio since she was a Doctoral student and wrote her dissertation about the feasibility of mobile phone surveys to create population-based estimates in Burkina Faso\, West Africa. Her grandfather worked for Central Surveys\, a survey research firm in Southwest Iowa that closed in 2017 after 80 years.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SRC Seminar Series Presents: Adolescence Post-Dobbs: The Changing Experience of Youth in America
DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/96614746841?pwd=NsaP62jYD2RG9iznBdq7saPbixRP8P.1&jst=2\nMeeting ID: 966 1474 6841\nPasscode: 920742\n\nAbstract\nAdolescence is a time of identity formation\, when young people figure out who they are and who they want to be. One of the ways they do this is by considering the world around them\, paying attention to social issues and starting to understand their society and their place in it. Laws and policies signal to young people what society thinks of their value\, their role in society and their opportunities for the future. But the experience of growing up in the post-Roe v. Wade era looks very different from that before the 50-year precedent was overturned in 2022. Following the Dobbs v. Jackson Supreme Court decision\, two-thirds of U.S. adolescents now live in a state with severely restricted or no legal abortion access. As a result\, today’s young people are coming of age in what has been termed an “era of rights retractions.” This talk will provide a data-based account of how\, following Dobbs\, the experience of adolescence and young adulthood in America has fundamentally changed and how rights retractions are not only affecting those who need an abortion – they are shaping an entire generation.\n\nBiography:\nDr. Julie Maslowsky is Associate Professor of Health Behavior and Clinical Sciences at the University of Michigan School of Nursing\, Associate Professor of Health Behavior and Health Equity at the University of Michigan School of Public Health\, and Research Associate Professor at the UM Institute for Social Research.  She is a developmental psychologist and population health scientist who studies adolescent health\, with a focus on sexual and reproductive health including contraception and abortion. Her research integrates adolescent developmental science with population and reproductive health to inform developmentally appropriate policies and practices on adolescent sexual and reproductive health.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SRC Research Seminar Series: RESET Demonstration Project: Early Results and Long-term Aims
DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/96393804480?pwd=ajnQfFv3GaVabRiIGyHpos27HLirqQ.1&jst=2\nMeeting ID: 963 9380 4480\nPasscode: 74720\n\nAbstract:\nThis seminar will present early results and the long-term aims of the RESET Demonstration Project\, an initiative that constructs price and sales indices using item-level transaction data. The project’s overarching goal is to demonstrate the feasibility and advantages of leveraging modern transaction data for economic measurement\, pointing toward a future in which official economic statistics are rebuilt using 21st-century data and technology. The seminar will present new measures of food-at-home inflation and evaluate them on two fronts: how they compare to current official statistics and what they offer as novel measures that more accurately capture the dynamics of consumer choice. It will also address the challenges of producing reliable and credible official statistics from item-level transaction data.\n\nThe RESET Project is supported by grants from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation (G-2016-7227\, G-2021-16821\, G-2025-25236\, G-2025-25273) and the National Science Foundation (2537470). The methodology and early results presented in this seminar are reported in “Early results from the RESET demonstration project: Inflation in food at home” Journal of Monetary Economics (In Press): https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmoneco.2026.103991\n\nBio:\nMatthew Shapiro is the Lawrence R. Klein Collegiate Professor of Economics and a Research Professor in the Survey Research Center at the University of Michigan. His general area of expertise is macroeconomics. His current work focuses on reengineering official economic statistics through his leadership of the Re-Engineering Statistics Using Economic Transactions (RESET) Project and the Economic Measurement Research Institute (EMRI) at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER).\n\nShapiro has a career-long interest in official statistics. He has served as chair of the Federal Economic Statistics Advisory Committee (FESAC)—the official advisory committee for the Census Bureau\, the Bureau of Labor Statistics\, and the Bureau of Economic Analysis—as well as chair of the American Economic Association’s Committee on Economic Statistics (AEAStat) and a member of the National Academy of Sciences’ Committee on National Statistics (CNSTAT). Shapiro currently chairs the Academic Advisory Council of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.\n\nBefore joining the faculty at the University of Michigan\, Shapiro was a faculty member at Yale University. He has twice served on the staff of the President’s Council of Economic Advisers. He was coeditor of the American Economic Review and editor of the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy. His administrative appointments at the University of Michigan have included chair of the Department of Economics and director of the Survey Research Center.

DESCRIPTION:MPSDS SRC Seminar\nMPSDS M3 Series: Mastery\, Methodology\, Meetups\nIn person\, room 1070\, Institute for Social Research and via Zoom.\n\nSeminal Ideas and Controversies in Statistics\n\nMy book “Seminal Ideas and Controversies in Statistics” was published in 2025. I’ll review some of the key ideas discussed in the book\, including likelihood methods versus estimating equations\, the Bayes versus frequentist controversy and a suggested resolution\, random effects modeling\, the dual role of randomization in surveys and clinical trials\, causal inference and alternative paradigms of sample survey inference.\n\nRod Little is Richard D. Remington Distinguished University Professor of Biostatistics Emeritus at the University of Michigan\, where he also holds emeritus appointments in the Department of Statistics and the Institute for Social Research.
