پژوهشگر ارشد
Judith Glaesser is a Research Fellow at the Methods Center, Department of Social Sciences, Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, University of Tübingen. She has held academic positions at Durham University and the University of Konstanz, with a sustained focus on research methods, sociology of education, and educational inequality. Research Interests: Her work centers on qualitative comparative analysis (QCA), mixed-methods integration, educational decision-making, and competence modeling. She investigates how social background, ability, and institutional structures interact to shape educational outcomes in Germany and England. Her methodological contributions emphasize causal asymmetry, limited diversity in QCA, and the integration of survey and interview data. The most recent articles reflect a strong trend in methodological innovation, particularly in refining QCA techniques, exploring causal complexity, and analyzing longitudinal data on student affect and dropout. Her work spans sociology, education, and psychometrics, often in interdisciplinary collaboration. She also contributes critical book reviews on topics ranging from social theory to mental health in youth. Book Review: JH Goldthorpe, The Making of a Sociologist (2025) Book Review: The Anxious Generation (2025) Case-to-Condition Ratios in QCA (2025) Analysing causal asymmetry (2024) Chance and the limits of social science (2024) Advising and Grants: While specific students are not listed, her roles as Senior Lecturer and Research Fellow imply mentoring of graduate students. She has led and contributed to significant research projects, including the 'Kompetenzmodellierung' initiative at Tübingen School of Education. Her collaborative work with Kelava, Kilian, and Cooper suggests involvement in funded interdisciplinary teams focused on educational measurement and dropout prevention. Labs and Teams: She is affiliated with the Methods Center at the University of Tübingen, which supports advanced research methodology across social sciences. She has also been associated with the Tübingen School of Education (TüSE) and the Graduate College 'Early Concepts of Man and Nature' at Mainz, indicating participation in interdisciplinary research networks focused on education and epistemology.
