PSYC 506 - Research Methods and Design II

(3 credits)
Prerequisite: Admission to MA in psychology program or consent of the department
This course includes two semesters of integrated statistical procedures and research design skills. Special emphasis will be placed on methodological issues that are likely to confront the graduate in applied settings. In addition to covering traditional statistical and design concepts, special applied research tools such as survey methodology, program evaluation “small-N”designs, non-parametric and multivariate models will be presented. The course will be very closely tied to the use of commonly available statistical packages such as SPSS, BMD, ALICE and STP. The course will reflect a strong experiential component including data collection, analysis and interpretation.
