Researchers from EDI Group and Mathematica discuss the added value of qualitative methods and spotlight how a mixed-method approach is providing important insights about how well reading and community engagement programs are serving young children and their parents in Nicaragua.

Researchers and policymakers across a number of fields have long understood the power of peer-to-peer learning.

Simply put, 2019 has been a big year for primary care in the United States. Whether you follow federal or state healthcare news or simply follow investor-entrepreneur Mark Cuban on Twitter, it’s likely you’ve seen how the conversation about primary care has been elevated.

In this episode of On the Evidence, Cindy Hu, a Mathematica data scientist, discusses the prevalence of Poly- and Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in our drinking water, as well as their health implications and ways to address them through public policy.

A strong economy requires a dynamic workforce that can adapt to the labor market’s demands. This often means workers will have schedules outside the traditional 9 to 5.

By using an enterprise risk management approach, state Medicaid agencies can meet new federal program integrity requirements, serve more clients, improve the quality of care, and contain costs.

The topic of exclusionary discipline is not only of professional interest to me—it’s personal. Helping my son navigate the middle grades was taxing. He attended a school that suspended him for defending himself when a classmate broke his iPad and then punched him during recess to instigate a fight.

Paul Messino offers insights on challenges states face as they implement health payment and delivery system reforms and the ways that Mathematica applies methods expertise, deep policy knowledge, and understanding of state contexts to help navigate to better outcomes.

Right now, more than 3.6 million public school teachers are preparing their classrooms, meeting with parents, reviewing lesson plans, and getting to know rooms full of students whose lives they will touch in countless ways.

In this episode of On the Evidence, University of Rhode Island's Annette Bourbonniere, Webility Corporation's Jennifer Christian, and Mathematica's Yonatan Ben-Shalom discuss research on workers who miss work because of an injury or illness and how to help them remain in the labor force.

On this episode of On the Evidence, we talk about a report that looks at the complicated relationships among nonstandard or changing work schedules, the availability of child care for those schedules, and child well-being. Our guests are Angela Rachidi and Russell Sykes, who coauthored the report.

Mathematica is proud to be 100 percent employee owned. Employee ownership is a critical component of who we are, and it shapes how we work together as colleagues.

Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all that we do means thinking critically about what diversity means and taking important steps to create a Mathematica where everyone feels welcome and can cultivate a meaningful career.

Time will tell what improvements artificial intelligence, machine learning and predictive algorithms can bring to healthcare, and at what cost, but it is past time to tackle the bigger ethical considerations that loom large over the future of the industry.

Medicaid and CHIP quality improvement often focuses on the big picture, but to be confident that new efforts will lead to improvement, we also need quality measures that can be captured earlier.

We are living in unprecedented times. To reduce the spread of COVID-19, more than 130 countries have closed schools entirely, impacting 80 percent of the world’s student population.

On this episode of On the Evidence, three researchers discuss how they work with child welfare agencies in the United States to use algorithms—or, what they call predictive risk models—to inform decisions by case managers and their supervisors.

The field of education evolves constantly and is now changing rapidly because of COVID-19. In the face of this pandemic, we continue to refine our practices.

For this episode of On the Evidence, a principal and an education researcher share insights from research and the field on implementing culturally responsive practices.

While many of us try to cope with the immediate effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and process the trauma, anxiety, and global loss, recent research might help guide the way forward.
