Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Goals: Understand and apply the fundamentals of statistics using practical examples from sports science
Content: Deskriptive statisics (univariate, bivariate), inferential statistics, graphical presentation of results
Methods: Frontal instructions and exercises on the PC (MS Excel, SPSS)

Assessment and permitted materials

Final grade will be based upon:
- Homeworks (each 8 points, total 40%)
- Final test (60 points / 60%, can be repeated)

All tests will be designed as open-book-exams. The usage of resource materials is explicitly allowed.

The entire completion of tasks by students must take place by the following April 30th for courses with continous assessment in the winter semester, and by September 30th at the latest for those in the summer semester. Students who did not sign out from the course are to be assessed. In the case of a negative assessment, an examination before a committee is not permitted; the course must be repeated. Legal source: Statutes of the University of Vienna §10 (4, 5, 6).
You are explicitly informed that if a result was obtained by fraudulent means (e.g. copying, plagiarism, use of unauthorized aids, forgeries, ghostwriting, etc.), the entire PI-LV is considered cheated and counts as a trial. (Entry in U: SPACE: X = not assessed).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The minimum requirement for a positive assessment is 60% of the total points, with each of the partial tasks being positively assessed.

Grading key:
Nicht genügend (5): <60%
Genügend (4): 60-70%
