Methods and statistics resources for faculty and students

From the director of the Owens Institute for Behavioral Research:

I want to bring your attention to a resource that many of you will find helpful. The resource gives all UGA faculty and students access to a video library of methods and statistics courses.

CARMA, the Consortium for the Advancement of Research Methods and Analysis, is an interdisciplinary consortium devoted to helping faculty, graduate students, and professionals learn of current developments in various areas of research methods and statistics. Their focus in research methods is highly relevant to many different types of research in the social and behavioral sciences.

CARMA has real-time webcasts and an extensive video library on both introductory and advanced research methods topics. Some of the topics included in the video library include:

  • Social network analysis
  • Multi-level modeling
  • Meta-analysis
  • Longitudinal data analysis
  • Methods in cross-cultural research
  • Mediation analyses
  • Quasi-experimental designs
  • Content analysis
  • Experience sampling

UGA has an institutional premium membership that allows all faculty and students free access to webcasts and the video library. We also receive a 50% discount on CARMA short courses.

To join CARMA, visit their website and sign up as a website user. This is a four-step process where you will provide your UGA contact information and email address (you must use your UGA email—personal emails are not allowed). You will then be sent an email to validate your email address. If you have problems with the CARMA registration process, please contact CARMA directly.
