Synectics' Research and Statistics Division provides quality services in all aspects of survey research.
We design complex survey samples, collect data, perform analyses, prepare reports, and disseminate data in published and
electronic form. We provide review and analysis to support decision-making processes.
We are frequent and sophisticated users of health, census, education, and other survey data.
Our staff members participate in cross-cutting, data-relevant organizations such as the
Association of Public Data Users (APDU) and the Council of Professional Associations on Federal Statistics (COPAFS).
Staff members are active in the American Statistical Association (ASA) and the Washington Statistical Society (WSS),
the American Psychological Association (APA), the American Public Health Association (APHA), and the Society for
Epidemiologic Research (SER).
We use leading-edge statistical packages and other technical resources. We provide a full range of
professional and technical services across a wide variety of operating systems and platforms.
We have extensive experience with Web-based technologies; software packages such as SAS, SPSS,
Stata, SUDAAN, HLM, WesVar, and AM; programming languages; integrated development environments (IDEs);
