Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, students are expected to:
1. Be able to choose, apply and explain statistical methods that are appropriate for data coming from relatively complex experimental research. This is accomplished by dealing with numerical examples and exercises.
2. Acquire basic knowledge to be able to assess the main psychometric characteristics of a psychological test on the basis of particular statistical methods.
3. Acquire the appropriate knowledge and skills to apply the statistical package SPSS in order to enter, transform and analyze data of an empirical research and explain the results applying the statistical methodology that has been taught in the courses Statistics I and II.
