ADR2018
5th International Conference for
Administrative Data Research
21-22 June 2018
Peter Froggatt Centre
Queens University Belfast
Call for Abstracts
The ADR conference is a growing annual event aimed at researchers who use administrative data to better understand populations
and societies. This year’s conference will take place in Belfast in the UK.
We invite abstracts for either presentations and/or posters to be submitted by the
7th March 2018.
We welcome submissions on any topic relating to administrative data and its use. This year we are particularly interested in submissions on the following themes:
The World of Work
The World of Work theme focusses on the labour market experience of those in, and out, of work. Research that aims
at providing a better understanding of the “gig economy” would be of particular interest as would work which aims to understand the ‘productivity puzzle’; this might include work with data that links employers and their employees.
Children and Education.
The Children and Education theme covers research that examines the social and economic issues that determine educational,
skills, well-being, and other outcomes for children as they reach adulthood and beyond. This might include work that places children in the context of their family and household circumstances, so that interventions, services, and other interactions relating
to children are seen in context of family and household circumstances rather than in isolation.
Growing Old
The Growing Old theme examines the social and economic issues for individuals, and for society and the economy, as people
transition through the period leading up to and beyond the state pension age.
Health and Wellbeing
This theme focuses on health and well-being across the life-course as an outcome of or a predictor of other socioeconomic
states and trajectories. Research that considers either mental or physical health, or the relationship between them, will be in scope.
Methodological Challenges and Innovations
In this theme we are interested in research utilising or developing cutting edge methodology including quasi experimental
design approaches, regression discontinuity, sibling studies, and instrumental variables.
Engagement and Co-Design
This theme covers research with methodologies using models co-production: integrated multi stakeholder research teams
with academia or government, members of the public and/or VCSE representatives. Projects or research which address gaps in knowledge regarding public/ VCSE views practice having impact via targeted policy or via practice development with publics/stakeholders
and the VCSE community.
We expect to notify authors whether they have been successful by the
31st March 2018.
