In January, Dr. Jolene Smyth started as an assistant professor with a joint appointment in SRAM and the Department of Sociology.
Jolene received her Ph.D. in Sociology in August, 2007 from Washington State University with specialization in the areas of survey methodology, gender, and family.
Her survey work focuses on reducing measurement and nonresponse error through the design and construction of questions, questionnaires, and implementation procedures.
Jolene is excited to have the opportunity to teach Questionnaire Design this spring and to bring her own interests and research into the classroom.
