RES 2700 - Statistics
This course focuses on the use of quantitative data analysis to understand samples using descriptive statistics and test empirical hypotheses utilizing inferential statistics. Through the use of data sets and research problems, students will learn the application of the appropriate statistical methods based on research conditions, including understanding the nature of samples, relationship between study variables, conditions, and statistical assumptions. Statistical methods emphasized in this course will include parametric methods (Student’s t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), linear regression), their nonparametric equivalents, and nominal group contrasts (e.g. chi-square test). Although the emphasis will be on computation and interpretation, students will also gain familiarity with quantitative research writing.
