Research
Herring has authored over 275 papers with a focus on statistical methods for correlated data, including longitudinal data and mixed-scale multivariate data. She collaborates extensively with researchers in reproductive, environmental, and global health.
In 2013, a longitudinal study led by Herring and colleagues and published in the British Medical Journal compared the dates of childbirth and of first intercourse reported in separate questions by a sample of American women, and determined that according to this data one out of every 200 women in the US reported dates consistent with giving virgin birth. Herring stated that she found it "highly unlikely" that these women believed themselves to be virgins at the time of their children's births, and suggested that the result might instead be a combination of unintentional inaccuracies by the subjects and of respondents being unwilling to admit to having intercourse.Шаблон:R
