Personal profile
Research interests
Beatriz is a Research Fellow in Quantitative Data/Statistics as part of Education Futures.
She is interested in methodological and substantive questions in quantitative educational research. Methodologically, she explores how alternative modelling and measurement techniques shed light on specific research problems and influence the conclusions of empirical research. Substantively, she is interested in inequality in educational outcomes.
Biography
Beatriz finished her PhD in Advanced Quantitative Methods as part of the Centre for Multilevel Modelling at the University of Bristol, UK. Her doctoral thesis explored alternative statistical techniques for measuring and modelling ethnic achievement gaps in Colombia. She previously worked at the Welsh Government and the centre for Research Centre in Economics and Finance (Cienfi) in Universidad Icesi. These experiences have allowed her to explore a range of statistical analysis methods for cross-sectional and longitudinal data, including linear and non-linear regression, time-series analysis, multivariate analysis, multilevel modelling, impact-evaluation methods and structural equation modelling.
Supervision interests
Quantitative research in education, including
- Analysis of administrative and secondary data to study inequality in educational outcomes.
- Comparison of quantitative methods for the analysis of such data.
- Impact evaluation, especially of large-scale interventions.
- Analysis of multilevel data structures.
