Content
This lecture will take place online, meaning there will be links available in time to download the lecture as a video (there will be three videos).
There will also be the possibility to send e-mails at any time with all questions after watching the videos.
In parallel, pdf slides of all parts of the lecture including SPSS screenshots will be available as well as all datasets so that students can do all things discussed in the videos on their own. There will be a first Webex seminar three weeks after the release of the videos (release of the videos: 16th of April, Webex seminar: 7th of May) where questions can be asked and discussed. Other Webex seminars will follow if needed.
