Quantitative Research Methods & Statisti

Catalog description

Quantitative Research Methods and Statistics focuses on developing understandings and skills related to designing, conducting, and assessing quantitative research. Topics include critical evaluation of scholarly literature, quantitative research design, ethical and diversity considerations in research, and statistics. One of the primary goals of the course is to help students develop the interest and skills to undertake systematic inquiry in applied or theoretical domains, translate scholarly findings to inform clinical practice, and begin building the argument and design that could serve as a basis for an empirical dissertation. Completion of an introductory research course at the undergraduate level is assumed, though not required.
