Professor of Sociology, Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Sociology, Professor of Political Science, and Faculty Research Scholar of DuPRI's Population Research Center
The main goal of my research is to understand moral and political beliefs: what they are, where they come from, and what they do. I lead the Measuring Morality project, the goal of which is to understand how different ideas of morality fit together and influence politics and other domains of life.
I also work quite a bit on statistical methods for observational data, including panel data, treatment effects analysis, and multilevel modeling.
