Combing the internets doing "research" I happened across a couple of interesting sites relating to sociological research. That is, if you find questions of statistical reasoning and organizational behavior interesting.
- orgtheory.net is a blog focusing on organization researchers from across many disciplines. Although much of it is over my head, some of the discussions are pretty engaging.
- Social Science Statistics Blog which identifies it's mission: "This blog makes public the hallway conversations about social science statistical methods and analysis from the Institute for Quantitative Social Science and related research groups." Today, they look at statistical analyses of the death penalty as a deterrent of crime.
What? You don't find those interesting? Can't say I am too surprised. However, for a great take on the statistical absurdity of Republican presidential primary polls, see this article at Slate.
