We invite you to submit your paper proposal to the Seventh Annual Southwest
Workshop on Mixed Methods Research (SWMMR). *We will meet on October 27-28,
2022 at the University of Notre Dame*. Confirmed Distinguished Scholars for
2022 include Jaimie Bleck (Notre Dame), Abby Cordova (Notre Dame), J. Jarpa
Dawuni (Howard), and Sarah Gershon (Georgia State). We are planning to hold
an in-person event, but with the uncertainty of the pandemic, we can
transition to a hybrid (or even fully online) version of the workshop.
*Format: *The annual workshop will include several panels of scholars who
will present and discuss article- or chapter-length works in progress that
either (a) utilize mixed methods in substantive social science research or
(b) contribute to the methodology of mixed-method research. Participants
will receive critical feedback from senior scholars as well as feedback
from the other participants.
*Costs:* There is no conference fee. Meals, coffee, and snacks will be
provided free of charge during the workshop. Participants are expected to
fund their own travel and hotel costs, although SWMMR may provide lodging
or travel credits if sufficient funding is received. In the event of an
all-virtual conference, SWMMR may provide funds to some participants to
support online participation, funding permitted.
*Inclusivity:* One of our goals for this workshop is to advance the
professional development of junior scholars and graduate students. We
therefore especially encourage paper proposals from graduate students in
their last year and early career professors at the Assistant or Associate
rank. Additionally, we are committed to fostering diversity in the field of
methodology and strongly encourage submissions from individuals who
identify with underrepresented groups.

and
submit your proposal by *May 2, 2022*. Please submit an abstract of no more
than 500 words that contains the following information:
(1) Name of applicant,
(2) Contact email,
(3) Summary of the paper,
(4) An explicit explanation of how your paper incorporates mixed methods.
Specifically, for papers focused on substantive topics, please explain how
the two or more different methods used in the paper strengthen the key
claim(s) of the paper in terms of measurement validity, internal validity,
external validity, causal inference, or other aspects of the research
design. For papers making a methodological contribution, please explain how
the paper’s methodological argument(s) connect with recent scholarship on
and debates about the theory of mixed method research.
(5) A key mission of SWMMR moving forward is to promote the work of our
minoritized colleagues in the social sciences. Indeed, we have won a
special grant from APSA that allows us to provide additional funding for
those colleagues who, as a function of the nature of the Academy, have been
systematically discriminated against. Consequently, we ask that you provide
us with a brief statement about your positionality in the Academy,
including your institutional affiliation, your position therein, and, if
you wish to disclose, any demographic categories or other groups with which
you identify. In this way we can better support those participants who, for
reasons of race, class, sex, ethnicity, orientation, etc. have had to work
especially hard to excel in their field.
Looking forward to another awesome SWMMR!
