Design and Statistics III - PSY349

This unit builds on and unifies statistical and design topics introduced in previous units, particularly PSY248 Design and Statistics II. Topics include: multiple regression (linear and curvilinear); analysis of variance and covariance; and model reduction procedures. These are all applied to non-orthogonal experimental designs in psychology. The unit also illustrates the links between these different methods through placing them in the context of the generalised linear model; in so doing the unit enhances students' understanding of statistical methods and their relationship with research design. Practical classes utilise the SPSS statistical package.
