Listen "S1E07: Talking to Strangers... About Quantitative Methodology"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Patrick and Greg respond to a call-in question from Alexis, asking about how one describes to another human being what a quantitative methodologist actually is, leading to a broader discussion about how one makes unique contributions to the sciences from a methodological framework. In addition to talking about quantitative methodology as a way of knowing, they also mention: portmanteaus, social skills, druncles, Zantac, half-Transylvanians, NASCAR pit crews, carving a turkey, ice cream sandwiches, and trailing vortices. And even after a full hour, it is not clear to anyone that they actually answered Alexis's question.Stay in contact with Quantitude!
