In addition, it aims to introduce students to the concept of research hypotheses (null and alternative hypotheses), and to different statistical analyses that are used in data analysis, such as: Z-test, t-test for independent and dependent samples, one way analysis of variance, some nonparametric statistics (such as Mann-Whitney, Wilcoxon test, etc.), two-way analysis of variance, simple and multiple regression analysis, and an introduction to multivariate analysis of variance. Students will be trained to do these analyses using SPSS. |
