In this unit of study you delve deeper into the methods used in health research, building on your knowledge from previous years (see the prerequisites). You will attend lectures and interactive workshops, and complete online study modules. After the common foundations, the unit will be split in streams so that each student will learn either quantitative or qualitative data analysis in depth (not both), depending on their prior learning. As part of quantitative methods, we cover experimental and observational (survey, casecontrol, cohort) study designs, and linear model and logistic regression for data analysis. Qualitative approaches include ethnography, grounded theory, phenomenology and narrative. Methods include interview, focus group and text based. The unit will help with your specific Honours project.
