| Goals | The aim of the course is to explain the importance of scientific research and to demonstrate the application of advanced quantitative research techniques. This course basically aims to teach the empirical approach, the measurement process and the use of statistical techniques for data analysis. |
| Course Content | The course includes data analysis methods such as parametric and non-parametric tests, experimental research with repeated and non-repetitive measures (ANOVA), correlation and regression analysis, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, structural equation modeling. SPSS, PROCESS and AMOS statistical programs are used for data analysis. Therefore, students will learn to use SPSS, PROCESS and AMOS programs. |
