There is a lot to think about as a researcher.

What design? How to Measure? How to Analyze?

This course will guide you through your entire research project: from formulating an intriguing research question all the way to drawing compelling conclusions.

What will you be able to DO after this course?

  • FORMULATE an intriguing but feasible research question.

  • DESIGN a criticism-proof study that minimizes alternative interpretations of your results.

  • MEASURE using the most suitable techniques to maximize reliability and validity.

  • COLLECT DATA while minimizing bias and using the right sample size.

  • ANALYZE your data correctly using free and easy-to-use software even if you have zero knowledge of statistics.

  • DRAW compelling conclusions that you can feel confident about and that you can defend against criticism.

What TOOLS will you receive?

  • FULL RESEARCH CHECKLIST to ensure that your research is complete and criticism-proof.

  • CONFOUNDER CHECKLIST to address all holes in your research design.

  • DATA ANALYSIS DECISION CHART to easily select the correct data analysis technique.

  • Links to free and easy-to-use SOFTWARE for data analysis and sample size calculation.

  • QUIZZES to solidify and deepen your understanding of each section.

In short, you will get everything you need to complete your research and make it successful.

Many people feel lost when they think about research methodology for the first time.

I was no exception: I felt like I was blindly stumbling through a forest during my first project.

However, I have learned that research does not need to be complicated.

In fact, research can be very simple if you know what steps to follow and how to avoid unnecessary complexity.

Even high-impact research often uses simple methods that can be mastered by anyone.

So, in this course, I want to give you a complete blueprint that guides you through your entire research project.

You will learn what to do, how to do it, and how to keep your research simple yet effective.
