EMPHASIS Description:
The Quantitative/Methodology Emphasis allows
students the option of specializing as behavioral science methodologists.
Faculty in the area have expertise in applied statistics, multivariate
methods, and psychometric theory. In general, each student, in conjunction
with the Quantitative/Methodology Committee, may map out a program
of study individually tailored to his or her career goals. The Quantitative/Methodology
concentration does however require some specified coursework to
be taken from another department (Mathematics and Statistics, Educational
Psychology) as well as from the quantitative psychology faculty.
EMPHASIS Requirements:
Beyond the departmental core requirements, all
students in the Quantitative/Methodology area will be required to
complete a course in multivariate statistics (Psych 601: Multiple
Measures or equivalent, e.g. Ed Psych 606: Applied Multivariate
Statistics) and four other graduate courses in methodology. At least
one of these courses must be selected from courses in quantitative
methods offered by other UNM departments. Recommended courses include:
- Ed Psy 607: Structural Equation Modeling
- Psych 650: Hierarchical Linear Modeling
- Psych 650: Programming in Psychology
- Public Health 502: Epidemiologic Methods
