Design and Statistical Analysis Laboratory

The Department has established a Design and Statistical Analysis Laboratory ('Dazzle') to provide guidance to departmental faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate honors students in both the design and analysis of their anticipated or ongoing research projects. Consultation is solution-focused. Consultation will be provided by advanced graduate students through enrollment in PSYC888 Research Methods in Psychology, under the direction of Kevin O'Grady.

Consultants hold regularly-scheduled office hours in BP 1145D. They are also available by appointment to meet outside of office hours. Appointments can be scheduled on a one-on-one basis; or, consultants can attend research team meetings to discuss beginning or continuing research projects and/or design, methodological, or statistical issues.

Contact the Lab by email or by phone at 301-405-3701.

Further information regarding consultants, office hours, contact information, and the like can be found at the Lab blog site.
