Notes:
James Honaker joined our department from Harvard University, where he specialized in statistical methods and formal theory. His doctoral dissertation addresses the formation of preferences in evolutionary games. Professor Honaker also studied party competition in legislatures and voting behavior in multi-party electoral systems. He worked with Gary King to create two widely used software packages: Amelia, a program for data imputation, and the Roadmap of American Democracy (ROAD), a vast database that merges precinct level voting data and census information. Honaker teaches courses in game theory and quantitative methods, and taught a special session on missing data at the 1999 meeting of the American Political Science Association. He has articles on multiple imputation methods, co-authored with Gary King, Anne Joseph, Ken Scheve and Jonathan Katz, in the American Political Science Review and Political Analysis.
