OBJECTIVES The aim of this discipline is to enable the student to build a data analysis plan based on their research project. II. CONTENT Basic concepts and methods: The goal is to present the main procedures for developing a data analysis plan based on the research question, study design, objectives and outcomes, and exposure and control variables (adjustment). The student should be able to coordinate the main knowledge acquired in the basic master’s courses to develop a data analysis plan consistent with their research project. III. TEACHING METHODOLOGY Seminars The teaching method is based on seminars where the main concepts for developing a data analysis plan are addressed through demonstration in SPSS using databases from the instructor or students. IV. ATTENDANCE Mandatory attendance is equal to or greater than 75% of the course instruction time. The attendance list must be signed by the student in the first thirty minutes after the start of each course activity. V.
