Research Associate, Global Attitudes, Pew Research Center, Washington, DC, USA. Deadline: open until filled; posted 3 December 2024.
Pew Research Center’s Global Attitudes team conducts cross-national survey research on major international issues such as attitudes toward the U.S. and American foreign policy, views of China, democracy, religious practice and attitudes, as well as how people view conditions in their countries and their own lives. The bulk of the team’s work focuses on one large annual survey (25+ countries) but periodically the team also employs secondary data, qualitative data and experimental data.
The Pew Research Center’s Global Attitudes team has an immediate need for a Research Associate. This position will be involved in all aspects of the survey research process, including: drafting a questionnaire, script testing, managing a cross-national translation and verification process, data quality control, vendor relations, reviewing fieldwork and technical reports, and more. Ideally, a Research Associate will gradually be able to not only participate in but manage these tasks.
A Research Associate will also be involved in analysis and writing reports and other products. Reports on the Global Attitudes team are highly collaborative and a Research Associate will be expected to assist in background research, producing charts and tables, statistical analysis, and number checking, in addition to writing. The Research Associate may serve as a spokesperson for the Global Attitudes team and will discuss our research with key audiences such as the media and policymakers.
This position works closely with other researchers on staff and reports to the Associate Director of Global Attitudes Research.
