Design of Experiments

Modifying quantitative methodology to support wider inferencing

The area of inquiry I pursue in STEM is the statistical design of experiments, particularly in understanding statistical tradeoffs of smaller (in general, modified) experiments. I intend to understand how it is we could design experiments with sufficient power, among other metrics, to be logistically less demanding and support inquiry and scientific productivity in low-resource contexts such as action research or high school STEM projects. My overall goal is to develop a mastery on inference strength regardless of a reduction of design parameters.

My current work explores longitudinal experiments and how we might be able to reduce resource load for designs of such. I am also currently exploring, in a related manner, the statistical tradeoffs of incomplete block designs pursued in international large-scale assessments.
