= Statistical Methods for Cognitive Psychologists =

=== Michaelmas 2020 ===

 * '''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'''
  * All Lectures will take place on zoom on '''Thursdays''' '''from 11 am till 12 noon''' and are being given by PeterWatson who will welcome any feedback. I will circulate a zoom link on the week of each talk.

''Links to '''updated''' Power``Point and PDF files of the lecture notes are being added'' ''during the progress of the course'' and may be downloaded to your desktop. 

 * A synopsis of the lectures is [[Synopsis2008|here]].
 
 * Lecture notes from last year's course are available [[StatsCourse2018|here]].

Talk slides and demo files will be added below as we go through the course.
