ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): 4.00 (differs over time) Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.

Short description:

The aim of the course is to prepare students to perform statistical analyzes in the SPSS package, interpret the results of the analyzes and create a report. The knowledge gained is to help students in the development and preparation of analyzes and reports on the obtained results for empirical, master's theses.

Full description:

1. SPSS package environment. SPSS package interface. Data coding, creating new variables, recoding variables.

2-4. Statistical description: measures of central tendency, dispersion, skewness. Determining the normality of the distribution. Create a report on the characteristics of the distribution of a variable.

5-6. Difference tests for two independent populations - test selection algorithm, effect size tests, report creation.

7. Tests of differences for two dependent populations - test selection algorithm, creating a report.

8. Tests of differences for more than two independent populations - test selection algorithm, creating a report.

9. Difference tests for more than two dependent populations - test selection algorithm, creating a report.

10. Variables dependency measures - test selection algorithm, creating a report.

11-12. Simple and multiple regression - creating a report.

13. Testing the reliability of the psychological scale - creating a report.

Efekty kształcenia i opis ECTS:

KNOWLEDGE:

The student selects the methods of statistical analysis for the analyzed issue according to the algorithm presented in the class

SKILLS:

The student carries out a statistical analysis, interprets the results, and makes a decision as to the hypothesis

COMPETENCES:

The student prepares a report on the basis of statistical analyzes performed by him/herself

DESCRIPTION OF ECTS CREDITS:

Participation in classes: 30h

Preparation for classes: 10h

Preparation of reports for the course completion: 20h

Total hours: 60

ECTS number: 60h / 30 = 2

Assessment methods and assessment criteria:

To complete the course, the student prepares two final reports on the selected issue given by the lecturer. The report verifies the knowledge, skills and competences of the student regarding the performance of independent analyzes and reports. The lecturer provides a database for statistical analyzes.

For a failing grade: the student is unable to select a method and perform the analysis, misinterprets the results and makes incorrect conclusions regarding the hypothesis

For a satisfactory grade: the student correctly selects the method and performs the analysis, but misinterprets the results and makes wrong conclusions regarding the hypothesis

With a good mark: the student correctly selects the method and performs the analysis, correctly interprets the results and makes the right conclusions regarding the hypothesis, but makes mistakes when creating the report, incorrectly uses statistical terminology

For a very good grade: the student correctly selects the method and performs the analysis, correctly interprets the results and makes appropriate conclusions regarding the hypothesis, correctly presents the results and conclusions in the report, demonstrating knowledge of statistical terminology

The basis for the course evaluation are:

- active participation in classes

- submission of final reports
