The workshop is an event conceived to bring together researchers who use experimental methodology to address political phenomena. Empirical works from any subfield of the discipline are welcome. We also welcome methodological contributions on experimental design or analysis, and works that explore the relationship between experimental and observational data. Both senior and junior scholars are encouraged to participate.  This is the second edition of the workshop. Last year it gathered a diverse set of scholars from several countries with high quality contributions. Last year's full program and papers can be found at  http://lore.gu.se/experiments-workshop 

The workshop will accomodate about 14 papers over the course of two days, plus a keynote lecture by professor Paul Sniderman (Stanford University).

We invite those interested in participating in the workshop to submit paper proposals (including name, affiliation and position of author/s and an abstract) before the 15th January 2016 to  [email protected] or through the form at  https://dec.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b9kfMIjNMIHxIRD. The paper selection will be notified by 15th February 2016. We expect relatively short papers (not more than 8.000 words) and they should be submitted by April 28 ^th.

Participants are encouraged to seek funding for travel from their home institutions, although a limited number travel grants might be available for PhD Students with quality contributions and no alternative sources of funding. Coffee breaks and a workshop dinner will be covered by the organizers. Please direct general enquiries to  [email protected] and logistic questions to  [email protected].
