Dear colleagues,
We have the great pleasure of inviting you to participate at the 7th workshop on Experiments in social-science research to be held in Budapest, September 18-19, 2025.
Call for papers
The workshop provides an opportunity for scientific discussions of scholars with various backgrounds, including sociology, economics, political sciences, or psychology, who work on social-science puzzles using any form of randomized-controlled trials, including but not limited to field experiments, laboratory experiments, A/B designs, vignette studies and more.
We welcome applications into two different sections. In the research design section, you can present your planned design without results. In the paper section, you can present the results of an accomplished experiment.
You can apply by submitting an extended abstract (300-500 words max.), including a clear indication of whether you apply to the design or the paper section, the research objectives, and a clear description of the experimental design. If you apply to the paper section, the abstract should contain the description of the data, the most important results, and their implication.
The Workshop is organized by the HUN-REN Centre for Economic and Regional Studies
