SUMMARY:Multi-Item Scale Development Part 2 (Online)
DESCRIPTION:This 6-hour course will be held online only. Attendance is required as it will not be recorded. \nThis course is the second in a two-part scale development course series on scale development. Part one of the series focused on the general theories and methods used in the scale development process. This second portion focuses on the analytic methods used to statistically test\, refine\, and validate scale data. These methods include Cronbach’s alpha\, exploratory factor analysis (EFA)\, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA)\, and basic structural equation models testing for predictive validity.

SUMMARY:Analyzing Large Datasets with the Julia Language (Online)
DESCRIPTION:This 2-day course (2/3/25 and 2/5/25) will teach participants how to use the programming language Julia to load\, clean\, plot\, and analyze social-science data. Julia is a newer programming language with a focus on high-performance scientific computing\, and allows efficient manipulation of large datasets. The course will cover the basics of loading tabular data; cleaning\, filtering\, and joining that data; calculating descriptive statistics; and estimating statistical models.

SUMMARY:Three Strategies for Qualitative Coding (Online)
DESCRIPTION:This 3-hour course will be offered online only. Attendance is required – this course will not be recorded. \nDescriptions in textbooks about classic approaches to coding qualitative data rarely coincide perfectly with the demands imposed by time and resources in the real world of practice. This short course reviews three approaches to coding qualitative data. The first two approaches – a purely inductive approach and an approach that combines deductively and inductively derived codes are more familiar than the third approach. The third approach is when a coding scheme is developed by mixed analysis that links qualitative and quantitative data on related constructs. Advantages and disadvantages of each approach are identified\, as well as suggestions about how the coding process can be adapted to be less time intensive. In an interactive component\, participants will experiment with different approaches to coding. The course will be useful to researchers engaged in qualitative research projects\, as well as those who are interested in using an approach with mixed methods.

SUMMARY:Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) Postdoc Support Group
DESCRIPTION:The post-doc experience can sometimes feel “in between.” You are no longer a graduate student\, and not yet in a permanent position.  Expectations for research and publication are high\, and it is often difficult to balance work and family responsibilities. This group will provide a confidential space for post-docs to discuss their concerns and seek support around these challenges. Tuesdays\, 12:00-1:30 pm (will start when filled). Please contact Sophia Davis\, LCSW\, at sophiad@email.unc.edu if you are interested in joining or have any questions about the group.

SUMMARY:Intermediate Qualtrics (Online)
DESCRIPTION:This course will cover topics beyond the scope of the Introductory to Qualtrics short course. We will take a deeper dive into Survey Flow features including embedded data\, customizing the End of Survey experience\, Screen Out Management\, and implementing randomization. We will explore methods of importing embedded data into your survey\, sending information from one survey to another\, and setting embedded data in your survey through conditions within your survey. An introduction to automations will be illustrated through an example use case sending respondents to a drawing after completing their survey. Finally\, we will create custom reports to share with others in the ‘reports’ tab. Course material will be incorporated into a shared Group in which all participants will be added\, offering hands-on practice with shared Libraries\, and Directories. Additional features to be discussed include piping\, authentication\, and version management. \nThis is a hands-on\, online course. Completion of “Introduction to Qualtrics” or understanding basic Qualtrics principles prior to this course is required. All participants are required to create a Qualtrics account before the course. UNC faculty\, staff and students may create their free Qualtrics account here to access full features: www.qualtrics.unc.edu. Non-UNC affiliated participants can create a free trial account here: https://www.qualtrics.com/
