EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY

ME/STAT 424

Introduction to statistical design and analysis of experiments. Topics include: principles of randomization, blocking and replication, randomized blocking designs, Latin square designs, full factorial and fractional factorial designs and response surface methodology. Substantial focus will be devoted to engineering applications.

MEDPHYS 651

Provides a practical foundation for neuroimaging research studies with statistical image analysis. Specific imaging methods include functional BOLD MRI, structural MRI morphometry, and diffusion tensor imaging. Lectures and associated in-class computer exercises will cover the physics and methods of image acquisition, steps and tools for image analyses, the basis for statistical image analyses and interpretation of the results.

ANSCI 865

Experimental design and proper data analysis are critical processes for scientific research. Planning and performing research studies have statistical implications that influence how results are interpreted. Learn the fundamentals of generalized linear models, experimental design, and data analysis using common examples from biological studies.

NTP 900

Critical review of selected topics in neurobiology.

PSYCH 610

Reliability, validity, one-sample t-test, independent-samples t-test, simple and multiple regression, effect size indicators, analysis of variance (ANOVA), analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), case analysis, model assumptions, transformations, polynomial regression, simple mediation, and moderated mediation.
