Telling a longitudinal story - Vernon Gayle

Published: June 6, 2017, 4 p.m.

Across the social sciences, there is widespread agreement that quantitative longitudinal research designs offer analysts powerful scientific data resources. However, a large number of texts on social survey analysis are written from a statistical, rather than a social science data analysis perspective with little or no focus on common practical challenges. In this episode of the Methods Podcast, Professor Vernon Gayle from the University of Edinburgh talks about longitudinal data and his soon-to-be published book, What is Quantitative Longitudinal Data Analysis? which provides those interested in longitudinal research with a practical and accessible guide.
