- Short Description:
- Curious about AI but unsure how it fits into market research? This session unpacks the real value of AI Persona Agents—agents that are trained to represent a segment or persona. You'll get a practical crash course on where these tools shine, where they fall short, and how they can improve our human-based research. We’ll share best practices for working with AI-generated persona agents, and walk through a detailed case study from a project that shows how one MedTech company built and used an AI-generated physician persona.

- Short Description:
- Data is everywhere, but without data literacy, misinformation, misinterpretation, and poor decision-making result. Researchers play a critical role in bridging the gap between data and meaningful understanding. This session explores why data literacy is essential today, how we can collectively foster a more data-literate society, and the role organizations like QRCA can play in educating the broader public. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to advocate for data literacy, empower stakeholders, and drive better, more informed decision-making.

- Short Description:
- On March 12, QRCA member Chris Hauck will present his innovative method to conduct in-person ethnographic studies. Using discretely hidden recording equipment in public spaces, (visible only to his participants), Chris captures their reactions in a completely natural environment. This allows Chris to report on observed behavior rather than reported behavior.

- Duration:

- Short Description:
- Moderator Neutrality: Avoiding Trigger Points When the Moderator is Emotionally Attached to the Topic. We've all heard the phrase that moderators should be neutral in their approach to the topic and refrain from letting our emotional baggage interfere with obtaining the data. But what does neutral mean? How do we maneuver around our very human traits of having a point of view about the findings or what we wish the outcome would be on behalf of our clients? What do we do when we have opinions on topics or when it is emotionally triggering? This webinar will answer those questions.
