The popularity of online surveys has increased the prominence of using sampling weights to
enhance claims of representativeness. Yet, much uncertainty remains regarding how these …

Weighting techniques are employed to generalize results from survey experiments to
populations of theoretical and substantive interest. Although weighting is often viewed as a …

Survey experiments have become a central methodology across the social sciences.
Researchers can combine experiments' causal power with the generalizability of population …

The use of survey experiments has surged in political science. The most common design is
the between-subjects design in which the outcome is only measured posttreatment. This …

Although a growing number of political scientists are conducting randomized experiments,
many of them only report the average treatment effects and do not systematically explore the …

There is increasing interest in experiments where outcomes are measured by surveys and
treatments are delivered by a separate mechanism in the real world, such as by mailers …

Survey experiments are ubiquitous in social science. A frequent critique is that positive
results in these studies stem from experimenter demand effects (EDEs)—bias that occurs …

We show how to use randomized participation incentives to test and account for
nonresponse bias in surveys. We first use data from a survey about labor market conditions …

Randomized experiments are increasingly used to study political phenomena because they
can credibly estimate the average effect of a treatment on a population of interest. But …

To what extent do survey experimental treatment effect estimates generalize to other
populations and contexts? Survey experiments conducted on convenience samples have …
