= Statistical Methods for Cognitive Psychologists = === Michaelmas 2005 === * '''Level''' * This is a course planned with the needs in mind of a graduate student starting as a PhD student at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences and related institutions. It will in addition be open to others e.g. research assistants, junior scientists, visitors. * '''Style''' * The presentation will be as fairly formal lectures, each aiming * to outline a particular class of methods * to give examples of it being applied to realistic situations * to indicate how to implement it using software available at CBU * '''Location''' * Lectures will take place in the West Wing Lecture Theatre on Thursdays from 11 am till 12 noon and are being given by [mailto:ian.nimmo-smith@mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk Ian Nimmo-Smith] and [mailto:peter.watson@mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk Peter Watson] who will welcome any feedback.
