The seminar is divided into a lecture and computer exercises. In the WS 2019/20, the aim of the lecture (2 hours each week) and the computer exercises (2 hours each week) is to introduce students into the models of discrete-time event history analysis, including data preparation, statistical considerations as well as substantive applications. We will in detail discuss the analysis of data with different time-aggregations and the potential impact of these aggregations on the estimated coefficients of time-constant and time-varying covariates. All discrete-time models are demonstrated on the basis of various concrete application examples in the social sciences.
It is not necessary that students took part in the SS 2019 lecture/exercises on continuous-time event history analysis. However, researchers are expected to have a basic knowledge of Stata. Students also have the possibility to discuss analysis problems and present their own event history applications. Participants can get credits by submitting defined exercises that will be specified during the course. The Stata computer exercises will be given by Dr. Gwendolin J. Blossfeld. She will also assist students if they have Stata problems and help them in making their exercises. More details on the assignments will be given during the introductory meetings.
Depending on participants’ requests, the lectures/exercises will be given in German or English.

- Description
Over the last two decades, social scientists have been collecting and analyzing event history data with increasing frequency. Illustrative examples of this type of substantive process can be given for a wide variety of social research fields: in labor market studies, workers move between unemployment and employment, full-time and part-time work, or among various kinds of jobs; in social inequality studies, people become a home-owner over the life course; in demographic analyses, men and women enter into consensual unions, marriages, or into father/motherhood, or are getting a divorce; in sociological mobility studies, employees shift through different occupations, social classes, or industries; in studies of organizational ecology, firms, unions, or organizations are founded or closed down; in political science research, governments break down, voluntary organizations are founded, or countries go through a transition from one political regime to another; in migration studies, people move between different regions or countries; in marketing applications, consumers switch from one brand to another or purchase the same brand again; in criminological studies, prisoners are released and commit another criminal act after some time; in communication analysis, interaction processes such as inter- personal and small group processes are studied; in educational studies, students drop out of school before completing their degrees, enter into a specific educational track, or later in the life course, start a program of further education; in analyses of ethnic conflict, incidences of racial and ethnic confrontation, protest, riot, and attack are studied; etc.
Depending on theoretical considerations about the process time axis and the degree of measurement accuracy of event times, the literature often distinguishes between discrete-time and continuous-time event history models. Discrete-time event history methods (1) either theoretically presuppose a discrete process time axis, i.e. that the events can only occur at fixed time intervals; (2) or they assume a continuous process time axis, i.e. that events can happen at any point in time, but that the measurement of these event times could only be achieved in a sequence of quite crude time intervals. For example, in some national panel studies events such as job shifts are only recorded as happening in yearly intervals. Various publications on discrete-time models are available in the literature. In the seminar, we will use a new book manuscript by Blossfeld, G.J. (forthcoming) and refer to Yamaguchi (1991), Singer and Willett (1993), Blossfeld and Blossfeld (2015a, 2015b)), and Blossfeld, Rohwer and Schneider (2019).
