    CARMA Research Methods Short Courses at UniSA

    The School of Management is pleased to host short courses offered by the Consortium for the Advancement of Research Methods and Analysis (CARMA). Two courses delivered by international experts in research methodology will be offered in April 2019.


    This is a great opportunity to practice and develop your skills in research methods and meet some of the greatest names in the field. Don't miss the chance to learn best practice from international experts.

    SESSION 1 – APRIL 8-10 (2.5 days)

    Systematic Reviews/Meta Analysis
    Associate Professor Ernest O'Boyle, Indiana University

    Course Description: Meta-analyses have now become a staple of research in the organizational sciences. Their purpose is to summarize and clarify the extant literature through systematic and transparent means. Meta-analyses help answer long-standing questions, address existing debates, and highlight opportunities for future research. Despite their prominence, knowledge and expertise in meta-analysis is still restricted to a relatively small group of scholars. This short course is intended to expand that group by familiarizing individuals with the key concepts and procedures of meta-analysis with a practical focus. Specifically, the goal is to provide the necessary tools to conduct and publish a meta-analysis/systematic review using best practices.

    SESSION 2 - APRIL 10-12 (2.5 days)

    Introduction to Structural Equation Modeling
    Professor Robert Vandenberg, University of Georgia, USA

    Course Description: The course will start with an overview of the principals underlying SEM. Subsequently, we move into measurement model evaluation including confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Time will be spent on interpreting the parameter estimates and comparing competing measurement models for correlated constructs. We will then move onto path model evaluation where paths representing "causal" relations are placed between the latent variables. Again, time will be spent on interpreting the various parameter estimates and determining whether the path models add anything above their underlying measurement models.
