Dr. Andreas Wahl studied empirical social sciences (B.A. and M.A.) at the University of Stuttgart. After his studies, he embarked on an academic career and was a research assistant at the Chair of Sociology and Empirical Social Research at the Institute of Social Sciences at the University of Stuttgart. In addition to working on various projects, he also completed his doctorate there. He then moved to the Institute for Entrepreneurship and Innovation Research as a postdoc.
His research area is primarily focused on the methods of empirical-analytical research. He is particularly interested in questions of sampling, alternative questioning techniques for the collection of sensitive characteristics, modeling and estimation of statistical models as well as their performance in different data settings. Furthermore, he is concerned with the explanation and prediction of behavior. For example, he is currently investigating the determinants and effects of different types of entrepreneurs using structural equation modeling and machine learning techniques.
