Psychology Honours
Resources for Honours Psychology
MLC Drop-In Centre
Students in Psychology can definitely visit the MLC Drop-In Centre to talk about any statistics that appears in their Psychology courses. Not everyone is an expert in statistics, so make sure you bring all your course resources with you and the staff will help you find the information you need. Also, we are not experts in RStudio. Your school has provided separate drop-in support for RStudio.
The MLC is not able to provide support for your formal honours research project. For these you need to contact your research supervisor or your honours coordinator.
Using RStudio
The School of Pychology has created a number of useful guides to using the program RStudio to analyse statistics. They have graciously allowed the MLC to make them available here on our website. Note there will be further instructions on using R inside your DRIP course materials.
- Getting started with R
- Describing data in R
- Loading practical data in R
- Functions in R
- Correlation in R
- Running a t-test in R
Statistics and choosing what statistics to do
The following lectures and associated resources were created for Medical students to help them learn to choose what statistical method to do in what research/data situation. You may find them helpful in your Psychology courses.
