AI-Aided Systematic Reviewing
Online course
More and more researchers rely upon Systematic Reviews: attempts to synthesize the state of the art in a particular scientific field. However, the scientific output of the world doubles every nine years. In this tsunami of new knowledge, there is not enough time to read everything – resulting in costly, abandoned, or error-prone work. Using the latest methods from the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), you can reduce the number of papers to…

Structural Equation Modeling in R using lavaan (E-Learning Course)
Online course
In this e-learning course, we will cover the basics of structural equation modeling (SEM) using the R package lavaan. Participants will learn how to interact with the lavaan software and how to run common types of structural equation models (e.g., path models, confirmatory factor analyses, latent regression models, multiple group models) using lavaan. No prior knowledge of lavaan is necessary, but some experience with R and SEM (although not…
