Call for Contributed Papers – Understanding Society

The organisers of the Second International Conference on the Methodology of Longitudinal Surveys (MOLS2) invite submissions of contributed paper proposals.

Submit an abstract via the online form

Contributed papers will be presented orally at the conference at the University of Essex on 25-27 July 2018 and may be eligible for submission to a special journal issue. Contributed papers should address methodological issues that are specific to the context of longitudinal data collection. This means any type of quantitative survey that involves collecting information on multiple occasions from the same subjects.

How to submit an abstract

Abstracts of no more than 400 words should be submitted online by 8 December 2017. Please ensure that the abstract states clearly the topic, how you will address it, and what data or methods you will use. Informal enquiries regarding possible submissions can be sent to the conference Chair, Peter Lynn.

Submit an abstract

Authors will be informed whether or not their submission has been accepted by 26 January 2018. The presenting author of a contributed paper is required to register for the conference by 1 June 2018.
