Overview
The COPSS-NISS Leadership Webinar series continues with an engaging session on Leadership in Esametry: Within-Individual Statistics of N-of-1 Trials and Single-Case Designs.
Over the past several decades, researchers from diverse disciplines have advanced methods of quantitative idiography—the science of understanding individuals through rigorous statistical approaches. These methods have emerged in different fields, from psychology and education to medicine and digital health, often evolving in parallel without a unifying framework. With the rise of modern health technologies and a growing emphasis on individualized approaches, the need for a shared language and community has become essential. This has led to the introduction of the term esametry (pronounced ee-sa-met-ree), inspired by “idiography” and “biometry” and derived from the Tagalog word isa (“one”). Esametry refers to the application of statistics to the individual—much like econometrics applies statistics to economics, or biostatistics to population health. Its central goal is to capture true average relationships across time for a “population-of-one.”
This webinar highlights leadership and innovation in the emerging field of esametry by focusing on two foundational approaches: n-of-1 trials and single-case designs. Participants will hear from thought leaders who are shaping how statistical methods can serve the science of individualized inference, especially in the context of digital health and personalized research.
