It is considered a relevant skill for a researcher to be able to understand, choose, and employ state-of-the-art data analysis techniques. The quantitative approach lies among the fundamental research traditions in social science in the sense that no successful researcher can afford to be less than proficient. This course intends not only to be about the use of statistics in research but also to navigate the interconnected details of quantitative research design and its implications related to the method details. Besides being able to reproduce techniques, this course is oriented to prepare MSc and PhD students to understand and execute the most appropriate quantitative technique available fully. It will be built around supporting software like R, whereas SPSS and STATA can also be employed. However, its most crucial knowledge refers to the strategic decisions a skilled researcher must make regarding the techniques and choices that result from a proper analysis strategy. Multiple high-level ABS 4 and 4* papers will be examples of the most updated analytical requirements, the conjunction of sequential tests, and results reports.
