Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Guided by the students’ individual research interests and needs, this seminar offers guidance and assistance in the application of multivariate and complex statistical models (cross-sectional and longitudinal) in psychology and related fields (the seminar is open to all CoBeNe doctoral students). The seminar specifically covers:
- Structural equation modeling (SEM; with continuous latent variables)
- Path analysis
- Mediation and moderation analysis
- Confirmatory factor analysis
- Multi-group modeling
- Multilevel modeling
- Growth curve modeling
- Latent class analysis (LCA; with categorical latent variables)
- Latent profile analysis (LPA; with categorical latent variables)
- Meta-analysis

Students present their research questions and analytical strategy. In class, we will deal with the nature, assumptions, and requirements of the various statistical analyses and models as needed; data formats (e.g., wide vs. long) and data management; and computational issues (e.g., regarding estimators). Data analysis with the free open-source software R (e.g., package lavaan), Mplus, and JASP/SPSS, where applicable, will be explained and discussed. Some prior experience with R is recommended, but not mandatory.

Course enrollment: via personal email to ulrich.tran@univie.ac.at.

The seminar will be held either in German or English, depending on the language requirements of participating students.
