Introduction to Psychological Design and Statistics

Statistical Concepts for Science

Please note: This subject has reached capacity for Session 1 - it is still available for Session 2. This unit provides students with an introduction to research design and statistical analysis. In this unit, students will learn about common research methods used in psychology and related disciplines, critically analyse these methods, and be able to conduct their own analyses. Both experimental and non-experimental research methods are covered, as well as a variety of statistical tests, including t-tests, correlation, and chi square analyses.Students will learn data management techniques and appropriate methods to summarise data, including both numeric and graphical summaries. Students will also gain hands-on experience using the statistical software Stata.

Learn how to design research and use statistics in psychology. You’ll get to know common statistical techniques and software. Conduct tests, summarise data, and communicate your findings. Think about the role of research in psychological science.

This is an intermediate statistics subject that covers both the design and statistical components of experiments common to psychological research. The importance of interpretation based on both the design and statistics components is emphasised, together with concepts of power and sample size requirements for efficient research. Statistical methods covered include: descriptive statistics; one-way and two-way analysis of variance; correlation; regression and non parametric equivalents of ANOVA. The subject includes instruction on the presentation of statistical results in report format. Practical classes are based on the use of the Stata statistical software.

In this intermediate course, you’ll cover statistics used for experiments in psychological research. Discover the importance of interpretation and the power of sample size. Learn statistic methods including correlation, regression and more.

Design and Statistics II

This subject provides a broad introduction to statistical concepts and data analysis techniques. You will develop an understanding of statistical practice through a study of those techniques most commonly used in the sciences, social sciences and humanities. Topics covered in this subject include data collection methods, data quality, data summarisation, and statistical models such as the normal distribution, followed by sampling distributions and statistical inferences about means and proportions. Also studied are methods of analysis relating to comparisons, counted data and relationships, including regression and correlation. Statistical computer packages are used for handling and analysing data. However, no prior computing knowledge is assumed. This subject introduces vital skills for tertiary learning and explores their relationship to success in future careers.

Gain vital statistics skills for your science degree and beyond. You’ll learn how to collect, organise, and summarise data. Explore statistical models. Use statistical software. Get set for science with a rigorous framework for analysing data.
