| Inhalt |
The course will provide an overview of methodological issues relevant to conducting survey research in the health sciences.
Topics covered in this course are: development of research questions, operationalization of concepts and measurement, as well as survey development and administration, including sampling, data collection and review of ethical considerations.
Students will develop, in teams, a proposal for a survey study that should cover all key aspects of the research loop. Students will be assigned early on to their group and will be encouraged to develop their research question(s) and research plan throughout the course.

| E-Learning |
References to relevant online tutorials/videos will be provided (available through Moodle). |
| Lernziele |
The overarching aim of the course is to equip students with a working knowledge and the necessary skills to develop and conduct independent research projects in the health sciences.
Upon completion of the course students should:
• have a hands-on understanding of the scientific process and the different steps of the research loop,
• be able to identify appropriate methods to investigate a research question, and
• be able to critically assess survey research methods, including instrumentation, sampling methods and administration. |
| Voraussetzungen |
1. Team project (max. 2 students) that should consist of developing a research proposal for a survey study, including a short summary of the results from cognitive interviews (more information to follow during class).
The team work will be graded with a grade between 1-6 and will count 80% towards the final grade. Teams will have to hand in the proposal (max. 10 pages, excl. references & max. 3 pages on results from cognitive interviews) by June 16th 2023.
Grading will be based 80% on the overall group work and 20% on in-class presentation.
2. Active participation in class (including group exercises) will be graded and will count 20% towards the final grade. |
