teremos a palestra da professora do pesquisador:

*Raphael Nishimura (University of Michigan)*

*Título: *Errors in election polls

*Resumo: *Election polling poses a unique applied statistical challenge as
it is one of the very few situations in which the finite population
parameters are known at some point briefly after the estimation occurs. In
recent years, election polls have been put into question given their
performance in major elections, such as the 2016 U.S. Presidential
Elections. Understanding what went wrong and finding solutions for their
problems is of utmost importance for the survival of this important tool in
democracies around the world. Statisticians are generally trained to
account for sampling errors in surveys, but there are other sources of
error that can have a larger impact on the quality of the survey estimates.
The Total Survey Error (TSE) provides a good framework to understand these
sources of error and how to address them through design or statistical
adjustments. In this presentation, I will review the different sources of
errors in election polls from a TSE perspective and present a few
case-studies from past election polls to
understand how these errors impacted their results.
