ISPR PROJECTS

The Institute for Survey and Policy Research is involved in various research projects in the areas of:

  • Econometric Forecasting using Time-series techniques and Economic Impact Studies using Input-Output modeling.
  • Public Opinion Polls using sample survey techniques. ISPR surveys are based on telephone interviews with a randomly selected sample of potential respondents.
  • General social science data analysis using statistical techniques.

These projects are often carried out on behalf of paying clients or in conjunction with other researchers. Not all the reports are available to the public. Those available to the public will be posted on this page in Adobe PDF format. The free Adobe® Acrobat® Reader™ is required to view these reports. Copies of the ISPR newsletter -- Monitoring Wisconsin -- are also posted in Adobe PDF format.

 

Individuals or organization who are interested in a list of unpublished projects undertaken by ISPR should sent email to Dr. Swarnjit Arora, Director of ISPR.
