Hello AIB colleagues:  With the AIB annual conference approaching, the AIB’s RM SIG – with the help of Maria Tereza Fleury – is pleased to offer 6 Pre-Conference RM Workshops.  Please note that we have made several changes.  First, as you can see below, we have included introductory and intermediates sessions for both SEM (Larry Williams) and multi-level modeling (Bob Vandenberg).  Second, we are thrilled to have Anne Smith lead a qualitative data analysis workshop.  Lastly, we are especially pleased to have two local hosts –  Myles Shaver and Joel Waldfogel – lead a workshop on Identification in IB Empirical Research. 

We respectfully request that interested attendees indicate a top choice and a second choice (waitlist) so that any many people as possible can attend these RM Workshops.  Using the following format, please sign up with an email to Stewart Miller ([log in to unmask]):
