This course covers essential topics in ANOVA and regression including independent sample designs, repeated design, interaction in ANOVA, multiple regression, variable selection method, dummy and effect coding, ANCOVA, moderation and mediation models. SPSS lab sessions will be provided.
Effect sizes will be computed from various statistical results and combined using fixed-effect and random-effect models.
This course covers theory and methods of testing models of covariance structures, model development, parameter estimation, goodness of fit, model modification, model comparison procedure, and the use of computer programs such as AMOS.
Generalized Linear Models will be covered for analyzing dichotomous, polytomous, ordinal, and count variable.
Fundamental theories including logics of hypothesis testing and estimation methods will be covered for understanding educational statistics.
The purpose of this course is to learn the basic concepts and the theories of multilevel models. A typical example of multilevel data is a data structure where individuals are nested within groups. Using this method, an interaction between individuals and groups can be studied.
In this course, students can learn methods of estimating individual change trajectories and testing correlates of the change patterns. Multilevel models and latent growth models will be covered.
Methods for minimizing rater effects and controlling for rater bias will be introduced using Generalizability Theory and Multifacet Models.
Adolescents' psychological status and behaviors will be understood on the basis of social network analysis.
Multivariate techniques such as MANOVA, cluster analysis, discriminant analysis, multidimensional scaling will be covered.
Examination of conceptual, substantive, and methodological issues in inferential statistics
Examination of item response theory, applications to educational achievement tests, item bias, test information, test equating, computerized adaptive testing.
Based on the basic statistics, theories on test construction and uses as well as test scores and scales will be discussed.
New theories in the fields of educational measurement and statistics will be covered.
Recent theories in educational statistics will be covered.
Recent theories in educational measurement will be covered.
