PSY 4600 DATA SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
This interdisciplinary course introduces undergraduate students to modern open science and data science practices in cognitive neuroscience and psychology using R. Students will learn reproducible workflows, data visualization, statistical analysis, experimental data handling, and transparent research practices. Emphasis is placed on real-world behavioral, physiological, and neuroscience datasets (e.g., EEG, heart rate, hormone, VR, survey, and cognitive task data). Students will gain hands-on experience in data wrangling, exploratory analysis, reproducible reporting, preregistration, and collaborative science practices.
The course is designed for students pursuing careers or graduate training in psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, data science, health sciences, and related STEM fields.
