Description:

The purpose of this course is to provide the student with a comprehensive background in the development and testing of self-report instruments for epidemiologic research purposes. A review of the principles of survey development will begin the course, however, it will rapidly move to a more hands-on approach as students will learn how to run and interpret classical test theory analyses, factor analyses, responsiveness to change analyses and Item Response Theory (IRT) analyses of item pool data. The students will learn how to use and integrate these statistical approaches to develop self-report instruments with high levels of validity and low levels of measurement error.
