1 Political Research Methods POLS 1600 Spring 2015 Nicholas L. Miller Department of Political Science Brown University TR, 6:40-8:00 PM Office: Watson Institute 303 Location: CIT 269 Office Hours: Tuesday 2-4 PM, or by appointment Course Description This course serves as an introduction to research methods in political science, with a focus on quantitative techniques. Topics covered include research design, descriptive statistics, statistical hypothesis testing, bivariate and multivariate regression, models for dichotomous dependent variables, and time series analysis. By the end of the course, students will have the requisite skills to intelligently consume and produce basic quantitative social science research. Enrollment is limited to 24 sophomore, junior, and senior Political Science, International Relations, or Public Policy concentrators. Assignments and Grading Students will be evaluated based on five problem sets (10% each, 50% total), class participation (10%), and a final research paper (40%). The dates on which each problem set will be handed out and turned in are listed on the weekly schedule below. Problem Sets Working together on problem sets is permissible; however, each student must write up his or her own answers and Stata code (in other words, no two students final products should be identical). If you worked with other students on your problem set, you must write the names of your collaborators on the top of the solutions you turn in. Hard copies of problem sets must be handed in to me at the beginning of class on the day they are due. Final Research Paper The final assignment for the course is a page paper that uses methods learned in the class to answer a research question of the student s choosing. The core components of the paper include (1) a brief introduction that spells out the research question, (2) a brief literature review, (3) a theory or hypothesis that the analysis will test, (4) a description of the data and methods used to assess the hypothesis/theory, (5) the results of the statistical analysis, and (6) a concluding section that discusses the implications of the findings and avenues for future research. On Tuesday 3/10, students are required to submit via a preliminary one-
2 page proposal that identifies a research question, hypothesis, and data sources for their topic. Final papers are due by 5 PM on Tuesday, 5/12. Required Books and Software The following two books are required for the course. They are available for purchase at the bookstore or can be bought online. Paul Kellstedt and Guy Whitten, The Fundamentals of Political Science Research, 2 nd Edition (New York: Cambridge University Press, 2013). Ulrich Kohler and Frauke Kreuter, Data Analysis Using Stata, 3 rd Edition (College Station, TX: Stata Press, 2012). We will be using Stata for statistical analysis in this course. Students can access Stata in three different ways: (1) by using a computer in a university lab, (2) by purchasing Stata at a discounted price through the Grad Plan ( (3) by downloading Stata from Brown s software distribution website and using it on campus or off-campus through VPN ( WEEK 1 Thursday, 1/22: Introduction Weekly Schedule WEEK 2 Tuesday, 1/27: Research Questions and Theory Building Gary King, Robert Keohane, and Sidney Verba, Designing Social Inquiry, Ch. 1 Kellstedt and Whitten, The Fundamentals of Political Science Research, Ch. 1, Ch. 2 Thursday, 1/29: Research Design Kellstedt and Whitten, The Fundamentals of Political Science Research, Ch. 3-4
