PSYC3700 Statistics for Psychology

Learners apply quantitative statistics to the study of human behavior. Learners systematically examine and test hypotheses and relationships using statistical software; interpret, display, and present statistical data; and analyze the validity of arguments based on statistics. In particular, learners gain and demonstrate skills required to conduct statistical sampling, define statistical assumptions and requirements, test statistical differences between and among groups, evaluate correlations, calculate effect size, and determine practical and statistical significance. Learners also consider career contingencies as they relate to statistics. Cannot be fulfilled by transfer or prior learning assessment.
