Statistical Design and Inference for the Social Sciences goes beyond the math to teach students how to use data to support meaningful, causal arguments.
Donald Vandegrift is a Professor of Economics at The College of New Jersey in Ewing, NJ where he teaches courses in statistics and economics. He received a BA from the College of William and Mary and a Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut. His primary areas of research are urban issues and experimental/behavioral economics. His urban research considers the amenity value and economic development effects of large institutions, crime and policing, and the economic effects of transport projects and land-use regulation. This research has appeared in Landscape and Urban Planning, Journal of Quantitative Criminology, Urban Affairs Review, Journal of Regional Science, Annals of Regional Science, Health & Place, and Research in Transportation Economics, among others. His experimental/behavioral research considers the effect of compensation schemes on risk taking, unproductive activities (i.e., sabotage), decisions to compete, and behavioral norms. This research has appeared in Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization, Experimental Economics, Labour Economics, Journal of Neuroscience, Psychology, and Economics, Journal of Research in Personality, and Journal of Institutional and Theoretical Economics. Grants from the National Science Foundation, the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, and the Institute for Humane Studies have supported his research.
