Quantitative Psychology

Educational Psychology Programs in Quantitative Methodology

Departments of Educational Psychology often house concentrations in quantitative methods. There is a strong tradition of methodological training in Educational Psychology, with research focused toward educational issues (e.g., educational measurement). Individuals trained in quantitative methods in education “bridge the gap between the theoretical statistician/psychometrician and the educational researcher. They teach, act as consultants to the educational researcher, and conduct their own research on statistics and psychometrics as applied to education” (University of Wisconsin, Department of Educational Psychology website, www.education.wisc.edu/edpsych/gradprog/quant.htm, February 6, 2007).
