Participants Needed for Research Study - CEDSCI study

CEDSCI, with the assistance of RTI International, is conducting research to improve the data dissemination website data.census.gov. Each participant will receive $40 for participating in the study. (Federal employees are not eligible to receive the $40.)

We would like to talk with people who meet one or more of the following criteria:

• Have any experience downloading and using datasets data.
• Have recent experience in using datasets provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.
• Use data from data.census.gov or other statistical sites (e.g., demographic/economic data) for research or decision-making.

If you know anyone who meets ANY of these criteria, we would appreciate it if you let them know of this research opportunity. 

The study session will last approximately 60 minutes and will take place virtually using Microsoft Teams to video conference with RTI staff. The study began on August 14, 2023, and concludes on September 8, 2023. While current federal employees are allowed to participate in off-duty time, they are not eligible to receive the incentive payment. 

Please have interested participants complete a short questionnaire at https://research.rm.census.gov/jfe/form/SV_3vGixRNbURopVf8 or contact Patrick Hsieh at 312-777-5234 or yph@rti.org for further information. Please mention the code Data Website when you call or email.
