KIN 109 - Statistics, Measurement, and Evaluation

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-0-0)

This course focuses largely upon the application of descriptive and inferential statistics in the context of quantitative research. The course also introduces students to basic principles surrounding measurement error, test reliability, and validity. Note: Students cannot receive credit for KIN 109 if they received credit for PEDS 109 or PEDS 309, PSYCH 211, SOC 210, STAT 141, or STAT 151.

KRLS 500A - Senior Undergraduate Research Thesis

3 units (fi 12)(TWO TERM, VARIABLE)

Students will pursue a topic of interest at an advanced level in an area relevant to their program of studies in the Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation and engage in an intensive self-directed study implementation under the supervision of a faculty member. Students are required to complete a detailed research proposal (with literature review and ethics approval if appropriate) in the Fall Term and the implementation of the study in the Winter Term. The Senior Undergraduate thesis involves the definition of an independent research proposal from the student, as well as the implementation of the research project, submission of the completed undergraduate research thesis, and a formal presentation of the project findings. NOTE: Students must arrange for a faculty member approved by the Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation to oversee their thesis. Permission for enrollment in this course is required from the Associate Dean, Undergraduate Programs in the Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation. Students must contact their assigned academic advisor for information regarding application and completion requirements. Students must be in their fourth or final year standing in a Faculty of KSR undergraduate program and have achieved a cumulative GPA of a minimum of 3.0 at the time of application.
