El martes 19 de diciembre de 9:00 a 13:00 se llevará a cabo el workshop presencial “Longitudinal experimental designs and models: A single case approach”, a cargo del profesor Dr. Jimmie Leppink (Hospital virtual Valdecilla, Santander, Cantabria).

Información sobre el workshop:

Background. Dynamic phenomena like learning and relations between people can be influenced by interventions and other events in a variety of ways. In this context, single case designs (SCDs) have several advantages over traditional group-based research designs which may allow for a large sample of participants but generally include only one or at best a few measurement occasions per participant. SCDs are about well-designed time series within participant of the same variables of interest, can be applied to any sample size (including N = 1), and – like their traditional group-based counterparts – exist in observational, quasi-experimental, and experimental form. In the latter case, the design is also called single case experimental design (SCED).

Approach. This workshop will focus on SCDs and SCEDs which are useful for the study of learning, relations between people, and other phenomena of interest in psychology and education. In the first half of the workshop, key methodological matters will be discussed and, in small groups or teams of two, designs for possible studies in your department will be developed. In the second half of the workshop, statistical solutions will be presented and can, in small groups or teams of two, be practiced in R and jamovi. Prior use of jamovi or R is not a requirement for this workshop, although it is recommended to (prior to the workshop) install both programs and a few packages in each as explained in the following. Example data files will be provided in CSV format during the workshop.

Programs. (1) R. Once downloaded via https://www.r-project.org/ (or else updated to at least version 4.2.2) and installed on your device, it is recommended to install the packages ‘nlme’ (we will use this for statistical models for N = 1 and for N > 1) and ‘ggplot2’ (we will use this to create graphs of the findings produced with ‘nlme’); and (2) jamovi. Once downloaded via https://www.jamovi.org/ (or else updated to at least version 2.3.28) and installed on your device, it is recommended to install the package ‘GAMLj3’).

El workshop ha sido organizado por la Facultat de Psicologia i Logopèdia (Acciones de Internacionalización en Casa) y el Programa de Doctorado en Lectura y Comprensión (University of Valencia). Está abierto a todo el alumnado y profesorado de la Facultat de Psicologia i Logopèdia, previa inscripción, aunque está especialmente recomendado para alumnado de los diferentes programas de doctorado. El aula se indicará unos días antes mediante correo electrónico a las personas inscritas.
