In this unit students will learn the basic principles of designing, undertaking and analysing research in speech pathology. This will enable students to critically reflect on research and appreciate the link between reserach skills and evidence-based practice. This unit will also lay the groundwork for students considering a research higher degree. A variety of topics will be explored including correlational techniques, hypothesis testing and qualitative methods. Exercises and examples will relate specifically to the basic science and applied aspects of speech pathology. Students will gain experience using SPSS statistical analysis software or equivalent.
