Biographical note
Alan S. Gerber is Professor of Political Science and Director of the Center for the Study of American Politics at Yale University where he teaches courses on experimental methods, statistics, and American politics. His experimental research has appeared in numerous academic journals including the leading journals in political science. Donald P. Green is Professor of Political Science at Columbia University, and the former director of Yale University’s Institution for Social and Policy Research. He is the author of numerous articles and several scholarly books on voter turnout, party identification, and experimental methods, including Get Out the Vote: How to Increase Voter Turnout (with Alan S. Gerber).
Written by two leading experts on experimental methods, this concise text covers the major aspects of experiment design, analysis, and interpretation in clear language. Students learn how to design randomized experiments, analyze the data, and interpret the findings. Beyond the authoritative coverage of the basic methodology, the authors include numerous features to help students achieve a deeper understanding of field experimentation, including rich examples from the social science literature, problem sets and discussions, data sets, and further readings.
