Behind the Statistics
Description
Statistical data is rightly seen as a central feature of much psychological research, but students need to understand the important methodological processes underpinning the production of such data. In this film, we go Behind the Statistics to look at the various factors from sampling techniques, through ideas about correlation and causation to experimental design that can influence the reliability and validity of statistical data.
