Research Best Practices
Section Info:
Research Best Practices is a course designed to help you hone your methodological and statistical intuitions by discussing and applying best practices in research design, analysis, and reporting. We will explore the growing literature on problematic practices and we will dive into the proposed solutions to these problems. We will construct and evaluate statistical simulations to enhance our intuitions about methodological practices and their consequences. We will engage in statistical forensics as a way to identify problematic practices in published findings. We will review best practices for open-science, including tools for pre-registration of study protocols and for documenting the conduct of science. **Approved for General Psychology Concentration**
