AEA Data Editor
Data editor for the American Economic Association - for official guidance, always go to http://aeaweb.org and https://aeadataeditor.github.io. Does not follow persons (sorry)
- Summer is approaching, and so are various conferences. As so often, I target being available at various conferences, including presenting and answering questions. Here is a list of places and times in the next two months.
- Reposted by AEA Data EditorUsers of the Demographic and Health Surveys, please take the United Nations Statistics Division DHS impact survey (form.jotform.com/250913880478...) regarding recent cuts. Replies inform future planning and advocacy. All responses are confidential and presented only in aggregate.
- Worthwhile to attend: rdapassociation.org/event-6142604
- My apologies for not posting this earlier (there's other stuff happening), but for those wrapping up their AEA Papers and Proceedings replication packages, here is some guidance aeadataeditor.github.io/aea-de-guida...
- Hopefully this is a useful tool: findlostdata.org
- Short note on provision of "raw" data in replication packages. "Raw" are data files exactly as downloaded from original source. Not renamed, not converted, not made prettier. All that is important, and is the next step, for which you provide code (or instructions). But "raw" is as "raw as it gets".
- Some excellent guidance from MIT on step by step data preservation of secondary data: libraries.mit.edu/data-managem... (via Wendy Kozlowski orcid.org/0000-0001-65...)
- Possible additional info for those seeking data: (no endorsement, just info) www.datarescueproject.org/current-effo...
- We are seeing some impact on reproducibility efforts with the transition to the new US administration. For now, I suggest that you make backups of any data that required you to actively interact with the Federal government, as there may be a delay in response times.... #openscience

- I sometimes see researchers doing copy-pasting between output from Stata/R/MATLAB ➡️Excel, to create tables. This is a lot of work, source of many copy-paste errors & a bad 👿idea. I describe 1 way to avoid this, even when you don't want to invest in a new and better tool. Think "halfway house"...
- Up on Saturday morning at #ASSA2025 : Day 2 of reproducibility tutorial by data editors. Any input to the topic? Answer our survey: cornell.yul1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
- Session 2 (Saturday, 8:00AM): How to check that your project really _is_ reproducible? And other tips from the trenches www.aeaweb.org/conference/2...
- Last chance! #ASSA2025 to fill out the survey! See you all in an hour at the tutorial on reproducibility DAY 1!
- #ASSA2025 If you want to influence (a bit) on what we present in our Tutorial on Reproducibility (DAY 1) FRIDAY 8:00 AM , do fill out this survey: cornell.yul1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... . Results: live tomorrow morning!

- Reposting this b/c of course it's #ASSA2025 !
- As folks are planning for the #ASSA2024 meetings, if you have questions or want to learn about the best way to conduct reproducible research and (later) prepare replication packages, come to our two sessions, joint w/ Marie Connolly @CanJEcon , co-sponsored w/ @ecmaeditors.bsky.social
