    Thank you for your participation.

    FILL OUT IN GOOGLE FORMS

    Dear Friend of CAS: STAND UP AND BE COUNTED! We statisticians are well aware of the current trend toward decreasing survey response rates that can bias a study’s results. Let’s practice what we preach and prove that statisticians value high response rates by completing this survey conducted on our very own population of professionals.

    Your assistance is requested for the first CAS survey of statisticians and collaborations. This research will be used to shape the committee’s new initiative focused on improving collaboration skills within ASA and statisticians. Survey results will provide an overview of current strengths and weaknesses, needs and opinions related to your collaborations.

    The questions are brief and primarily relate to your work experience. It should take a few minutes to complete. Your response is very important to provide an appropriate representation of statisticians. If you have any difficulty accessing the web survey, please contact the committee at appliedstatistcians@gmail.com.

    Your participation is voluntary and we encourage you to make this special survey a priority.

    Sincerely,

    Erin Tanenbaum, Mark Otto, and the rest of the Committee on Applied Statisticians

    To help protect your confidentiality, the surveys will not contain information that will personally identify you. Your name will not be associated with any information you provide unless you choose to provide your name. The results of this study will be used to shape our initiative and will be shared with the ASA. Summarized data may be summarized and disseminated at an upcoming JSM. Taking the survey indicates that you have read the above information and that you agree to participate. Thank you very much for your cooperation.
