<p>When conducting research, especially with the purpose of reporting the resulst to SKY, it is necessary to follow a set of methodological guidelines. The set of methodological guidelines is organized so as to correspond to the set of methods social scientists routinely use:</p>
<ul>
<li>Randomized Controlled Trials</li>
<li>Natural Experiments
<ul>
<li>Difference In Differences</li>
<li>Regression Discontinuity Designs</li>
<li>Instrumental Variables</li>
<li>Kink Designs and Notches</li>
</ul></li>
<li>Observational Methods</li>
<li>Lab Experiments</li>
<li>Structural Models</li>
<li>Qualitative Methods</li>
</ul>
