CEGA has two positions available to support a study, as part of the center’s larger Transparency research agenda. The primary goal is to evaluate the impact of reporting guidelines and resource incentives on reporting practices and publication outcomes of pre-registered research projects in economics and political science, and to ultimately improve the transparency and reproducibility of social science research. The positions will work closely with CEGA Faculty Director Edward Miguel, Staff Scientist Fernando Hoces de la Guardia, and other CEGA staff, to support project management of the study and contribute to data collection, management and analysis. The project will begin in 2023, and the positions will work to support the testing and implementation of reporting guidelines, the development of statistical models and analyses using Stata, R and other software packages, and will support the publishing of the resulting findings and research materials.
