Objectives
Objectives
UC has the following learning objectives:
LO1. Apply fundamental concepts of inferential statistics to the study of one, two or more populations;
LO2. Calculate and analyze point estimates and intervals of parametric and nonparametric parameters for a population;
LO3. Calculate and quantify the relationship or association between two variables;
LO4. Calculate and analyze differences, point estimates, and intervals of parametric and nonparametric parameters between two populations;
LO5. Calculate and analyze point estimates and intervals of parametric and nonparametric parameters for three or more populations;
LG6. Assess, select, and apply various statistical procedures while considering the research objectives;
LO7. Use the JASP® statistical analysis software effectively and proficiently.
Note. LO = learning outcomes

Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
The teaching-learning methodology employed adopts an active approach by delivering content within a laboratory setting. This methodology emphasizes experimentation and encourages cooperation among students. Additionally, whenever feasible, students are actively involved in ongoing research projects conducted within the Research and Development unit (HEI-Lab).
