CONTENT SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION

Ever wonder about your PhD topic and direction? In your study, are you thinking about factors contributing to certain events or behaviors? Is it sufficient to reach a decent PhD quality with factors or antecedents? Let’s open a new horizon in your PhD focus and direction. Instead of just focusing on factors or conditions, this 2-day workshop will set-forth a new perspective in your thinking and research. The workshop will provide an easy-to-follow research paradigm that is unique in its own way, and very useful in reaching a good piece of research work that can reach an international PhD standard.   

On the second day, the discussion will focus on data management using SPSS. The hands-on discussion is very useful for the management of data. SPSS is one of the basic software that is utilized to input data before the data is further used for advanced and complex analyses, such as in the SmartPLS or AMOS. Knowing the features in SPSS is vital to manage the data before the data is being exported for use in advanced software. Knowing the features in SPSS enables you to manage your data well, and to generate your “preferred” study relationships.

This workshop will cover the concepts of research (ideas and focus), the changing facets of research, and hands-on using SPSS (not for analyses, but to know few important features that can be utilized for your study benefits). 

Master your skills needed to become an expert in research and using the features in SPSS.
