A new article from the Washington Post shares research from NORC and Committee of 100 on discrimination faced by Chinese Americans. Our survey found that: ➡️ 68% of Chinese Americans reported facing at least one form of discrimination in an average month ➡️ 65% said they think the state of U.S.-China relations negatively impacts how other Americans treat them ➡️43% of Chinese Americans said they felt depressed More insights from our research: https://lnkd.in/eA8GVVQ5

About us
Together, We Find Evidence for a Better World. NORC at the University of Chicago is an objective, nonpartisan research organization that partners with government, corporate, and nonprofit clients around the world to inform the critical decisions facing society. For more than 80 years, NORC has used proven methods and pioneered new techniques to study the broad spectrum of human experience. We have explored the structural and personal factors that contribute to health and well-being, examined how we best learn at different stages of development, and how education systems contribute to positive and negative outcomes. NORC has charted the nature of employment and work and created deep knowledge about the state of the national economy and our relationship with money and income. We have helped governments around the world design, implement, and evaluate programs to improve the human condition. And we have probed the heart of the American psyche to understand the sometimes-conflicting views that will shape the future of the country. We now look to the future in a context of accelerating change within the industry, growing amounts and types of data, dramatic technological shifts, a dynamic population, and a growing and diversifying set of players in the research and data industries. In this environment, we must chart a course of evolutionary yet bold change that will build upon our traditional strengths to ensure our relevance, impact, and long-term sustainability.

A recent congressional report from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) reveals that in 2017, one in three patients who died in hospitals succumbed to sepsis. The latest NORC Now newsletter discusses our work on AHRQ's Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP). This collaborative effort enables researchers to uncover crucial health care insights, contributing to the broader goal of improving patient care and outcomes.

Senior Vice President, Education and Child Development at NORC at the University of Chicago | Transforming education one evaluation at a time! #bluecollarscholar #firstgen | Chaotic Good
My colleagues at NORC at the University of Chicago are launching the AmeriSpeak® Teen Omnibus, a quarterly survey of U.S. teenagers (ages 13 to 17). With a nationally representative sample and independent responses from teens, this new survey allows researchers, policymakers, and organizations to stay in tune with youth perspectives on everything from media habits to education, afterschool activities, and more. Learn more here and feel free to share with any colleagues who might be interested in running a survey with us: https://lnkd.in/epqxRqu8 #surveyresearch #teeninsights #dataanalytics #youthtrends #NORC #AmeriSpeak

Congrats to Tabitha Pyatt, MHS and other staff from our Center on Public Safety & Justice for sharing your research at the National Institute of Justice’s National Research Conference! #NIJ2024
This morning I had the opportunity to speak on a panel at the NIJ (National Institute of Justice) National Research Conference and present findings from a scoping review conducted by me and my colleagues at NORC at the University of Chicago centered around understanding and addressing hate crimes towards LGBTQ+ communities. It was such an insightful panel with great conversation! A huge shoutout to my fellow panelists as well as my colleagues who I’ve worked with over the past few months to better understand such an important issue impacting sexual minorities.

Families are likely to use multiple sources of information to look for early care, and sources may be associated with other factors in a search. Learn more in this new report from OPRE, NORC at the University of Chicago and the Urban Institute, which shares details on how parents look for care, highlighting areas for future research. #ECE #ECEchat #childcare https://lnkd.in/eQjU33zH

While “facts” can be nuanced, as a society we will always benefit from seeking science-based guidance to make tough choices. Misinformation is a distraction that interferes with all of us living our best lives, individually and together.
Our team at NORC at the University of Chicago's Social Data Collaboratory (SDC) is so proud of our member, Chandler Carter, who just presented groundbreaking research at the AAPOR conference! 🔬🎉 In the age of AI and large language models, misinformation is a growing concern, especially for marginalized communities. We've developed a novel approach to detect online COVID-19 vaccine misinformation that focuses on message framing strategies rather than fact-checking. Why? Because health information evolves rapidly, and distinguishing facts from misinformation can be highly biased. Key takeaways from our research: 1. 📊 We analyzed 10+ terabytes of data from Twitter and Instagram (2020-2023). 2. 🧠 Our model identifies rhetorical strategies like symbolism, anecdotes, and uncertainty. 3. 🖼️ We found symbolism to be the most common strategy, especially on Instagram. 4. ⚖️ Bias can creep in at every stage: data collection, labeling, and model development. 5. 🌈 We're working to mitigate these biases through diverse data sources, transparent labeling, and inclusive model design. Way to go, Chandler! This research is just the beginning. We're committed to developing more equitable AI models that can help combat misinformation across various topics. Have ideas on how we can further improve our approach or interested in collaborating? We'd love to hear from you! 🤝 Reach out to Alex Kresovich at [email protected] to start a conversation. Together, we can create a more informed and equitable digital landscape. Let's connect and make a difference! 💡 #AIEthics #Misinformation #PublicHealth #DataScience #AAPOR2024

Earlier this year Center Experts Weiwei Liu and Elizabeth A. Mumford wrote an Expert View on the importance of officer well-being and the notion that resilience makes law enforcement better. Since 2017, the U.S. Department of Justice’s National Institute of Justice has funded NORC at the University of Chicago in conducting a nationally representative study, the Officer Safety and Wellness (OSAW) Initiative. The Initiative examined different facets of law enforcement for the benefit of both individual and community outcomes. Using the longitudinal OSAW data, the team looked at officers’ reports of their perceived stress, job satisfaction, job performance ratings and how agency wellness programs and officers’ personal resilience might mitigate the effects of stress on job satisfaction and performance. Main Takeaways: + Officers’ stress predicted lower job satisfaction a year later and self-reports of poorer job performance two years later. + Higher job satisfaction predicted better job performance reports at the end of the following year. +Highly resilient officers (compared to those with low/moderate resilience) and officers with easily accessible agency wellness programming (compared to those whose agencies did not offer wellness programming support or for whom there were stigma concerns) were more likely to avoid the negative impact of stress on job performance.
