Description:
|
This project analyzes email responses sent from politicians to constituents. I am seeking a research team to help build a data set that measures the quality of the responses. Team members will also have the opportunity to learn about experiments, how to measure ‘discrimination’ through experimental methods, and to perform statistical analyses to evaluate whether and how responsiveness differs by the gender, office, or party of the public official.
