Quantitative Social Research

Chair 04 | Prof. Dr. Katrin Auspurg

Welcome to our chair!

We focus on research methods (experiments, surveys, replications), social inequality (e.g., gender inequality, ethnic discrimination), and attitudes toward and acceptance of political measures (e.g., in the environmental sector).

Empirical-Analytical Sociology

In our research and teaching, we adhere to the scientific approach of empirical-analytical sociology. For us, this means: meaningful data, transparent methods, and scientific findings that are verifiable by others. We therefore make our research on social inequality, climate change, and many other topics as openly accessible as possible and adhere to the FAIR principles.
