Quantitative Data Collection and Analysis: Part 1

Quantitative Data Collection and Analysis: Part 1

Join Dr. Jennifer Payne in this two-part session that explores Stats “beyond Stats”. Part 1 of this session will start at the beginning—reviewing principles of data collection (data quality), types of variables, challenges with different data sources, and understanding how data collection is tied to the research question. Feel free to attend Part 1 even if you are unable to attend Part 2.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand how data collection supports the research question (and helps frame it)
  • Understand best practice with respect to data collection scope and quality
  • Understand moving from raw data to data ready for analysis

Recommended for: Members of the NS Research Community who are new to writing research proposals or funding applications, or who want to brush up on related skills. These sessions would be of most benefit to Early Career Investigators (PhDs, physicians, residents, fellows, other health care professionals, etc.) or research staff who are interested in learning more, assisting with, or are developing their own research studies.

In Person: RMU Multimedia Room, Room 114, Centre for Clinical Research, 5790 University Avenue, Halifax
