About the Course
This course aims to help you to ask better statistical questions when performing empirical research. We will discuss how to design informative studies, both when your predictions are correct, as when your predictions are wrong. We will question norms, and reflect on how we can improve research practices to ask more interesting questions. In practical hands on assignments you will learn techniques and tools that can be immediately implemented in your own research, such as thinking about the smallest effect size you are interested in, justifying your sample size, evaluate findings in the literature while keeping publication bias into account, performing a meta-analysis, and making your analyses computationally reproducible.
If you have the time, it is recommended that you complete my course 'Improving Your Statistical Inferences' before enrolling in this course, although this course is completely self-contained.

This was the best course that I have ever taken. Professor Lakens's excellent expression and wonderful lesson plan have created a thought-provoking review. I sincerely thank him

Excellent! Would like only one addition, and that's a more extensive exercise on simulating data with general linear models

Way too hard for those who want to update statistical question asking, not modeling, simulations, meta-analysis, etc.
