PHVIT9300 Quantitative Methods Course description

This course is based on PHVIT9100, Health Sciences II: Philosophy of Science, Research Ethics and Research Methodology. It takes a critical perspective of quantitative methodology related to research processes where quantitative design is relevant. The course also covers how the choice of different quantitative methods affect the quality of research. The application of different designs (cross-sectional, longitudinal, clinical trial, experimental) and advanced statistical analysis (regression analysis, repeated measurement, survival analysis, power analysis) is discussed.

The following work requirements are mandatory and must be approved to appear for the exam:

Project 1: Exploration and experimentation I (individual work):

• An artistic work that includes process work and final product.
