課程概述

This is the second course in a two-semester course series on statistics applied to psychology/social sciences. It is designed primarily for undergraduates who anticipate future applications of statistical methods. Topics covered in this course include a review of one-way analysis of variance, two-way analysis of variance, interactions, correlation coefficients, linear regression analyses, chi-square test of goodness of fit, chi-square test of equal proportions, chi-square test of independence, and non-parametric tests. Prerequisite of this course is mastery of materials covered in the first course of the two-semester series and Excel basic commands. 

課程目標
1. To acquire advanced skills necessary for applying statistical principles of inference to well-defined psychological and educational research;
2. To enhance statistical thinking, reasoning, literacy, attitudes, and beliefs;
3. To be able to critically evaluate manuscripts in which statistical techniques covered in this course were applied; and
4. To carry out numerical analyses of data by a calculator (e.g., Casio fx-260), Excel, JASP, or others. 
課程要求
For each topic covered in this course, exercises and readings taken from textbooks or other sources are assigned. Students are expected to be up-to-date on assigned readings and exercises since class time is structured around in-depth understanding of statistical concepts and applications.

Activities that typically take place in the labs include, but are not limited to: (a) clarification of lectures, (b) answering questions related to homework, assigned readings, inclass exams, or any administrative aspect of the course, and (c) instruction on basic Excel/JASP commands and execution.

Student’s performance in this course will be evaluated based on five homework assignments (20%), three inclass exams (20% each and 60% for all three), and lab performance (實習課程20%). Specific scope and format of these assessment mechanisms are announced later in class. 
預期每週課前或/與課後學習時數
For each hour spent in the class, students should plan on spending 3 hours to review or preview assigned readings and homework.  
Office Hours
另約時間 備註: The instructor is available immediately after each Wednesday class or labs on Mondays in Psychology N206. Otherwise, you can email Dr. Peng at peng.cyj@gmail.com for individual appointments. TAs' office hours are immediately after Monday's labs.
