Statistical topics include Factorial ANOVA & ANCOVA, Multiple Regression, and MANOVA. Knowledge of SPSS is critical to the successful completion of PSY-717. When completing this course, students will be able to conduct advanced statistical analyses and communicate the results of these analyses using appropriate language and APA style for text, tables and figures. Pre-requisites: PSY-716A or IECD-536 Delivery Method: Distance/Electronically Mediated Grading Default: Letter Only Learning Outcome(s):
- Describe the assumptions underlying multivariate statistical techniques and how to test these assumptions.
- Make adjustments to analyses when assumptions are violated (e.g., transform variables, delete outliers, apply non-parametric, or robust alternatives).
- Apply the appropriate statistical method to a variety of research questions and designs.
- Conduct Factorial ANOVA & ANCOVA, Multiple Regression (including hierarchical methods), and MANOVA.
- Write the results of all the statistical techniques discussed above using APA format and including properly constructed tables.
