L.A. FANS Data Users Workshop
The Los Angeles Family and Neighborhood Survey is an importance research tool for investigating the effects of neighborhood social and physical context for families, adults, and children. The unique longitudinal design of the survey traces the movements of residents into and out of neighborhoods, and captures changes over time in sampled neighborhoods and in family, adult, and child outcomes. L.A.FANS is particularly valuable for the study of spatial patterns of urban and suburban behavior. The geospatial information collected in L.A.FANS is unparalleled among large, representative surveys in the U.S. and, thus, plays a crucial role in advancing spatial demography and understanding the role of place in daily life. The L.A.FANS Summer Workshop is designed for researchers to upgrade their knowledge or learn to use the L.A.FANS data for research. The workshop is designed for faculty, researchers, and doctoral students.
