The course of Contemporary Methods in Data Analysis is offered to the PhD students who have already gone through the basic course of Multivariate Data Analysis. This course will acquaint the students with the most contemporary Methods in Data Analysis that are being used to test the complex models. The course of Contemporary Methods in Data Analysis will enable the students to test multiple mediation using Phantom Modeling in AMOS, testing two stage mediation and serial mediation in AMOS, testing moderation in structural equation modeling using the process of Orthoganalization, analyzing the nested data, Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM), Multilevel Modeling (MLM), analysis of dyadic data, experimentation and analysis and reporting of experimental data, and latent growth curve.
