 RESEARCH/EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND ANALYSIS
What is it?
Are you planning to collect data through a human factors experiment? Never make such a terrible mistake to conduct experiments without learning the principles of experimental design. Inconsiderate experimental designs lead to errorneous analysis, and as a due process, results in abuse and wrongful application of the results.
What I've done and learned so far?
The followings are courses relevant to this topic:
  1. Experimental design and analysis, IE542, POSTECH, Dr. Min K. Chung
  2. Human factors research methodology, IE642, POSTECH, Dr. Sung H. Han
  3. Human factors research design I/II, ISE5615/ISE5616, Virginia Tech, Dr. Robert C. Williges
