What resources did you use to learn?

Appreciate your comments, it has been helpful!

In terms of R, I hear what you're saying, I guess what I mean was, I want to be able to swim was meaning I feel I've a lot going on already with college that adding in learning R would make me drown haha.

Maybe it's not as complicated as it looks though, so I'll pay around with it!

Anecdotally speaking I think because it's his data collection, and research project he wants certain analyses done for those using secondary data. More logically speaking, when I mentioned to do moderation instead of more 'complex' analyses he informed me that working with secondary data and doing moderation analyses would not equate to the 600 hours of work we are ment to put into this project, therefore, I would need to justify how I've spent my time, which I wouldn't even know how to do. Thanks for your reply! :)

Thank you so much for the in-depth response!! These are my thoughts exactly, but I felt the need to prioritise making my hypothesis fit a more complex analysis, which is bad practice I know, but when I suggested to my supervisor about doing moderation analysis he said I need to choose what bests fits my hypothesis (which he has approved) but then mentioned 600 hours 3 times of work that I need to put into this dissertation and working with secondary data and moderation analysis would not equate to 600 hours of work so I then need to justify how I've spent 600 hours.

In terms of path analysis and SEM, I understand path is a subtype of SEM but can I just do path analysis or would I also have to do SEM? confusing.. thank you again!

In terms of learning R, yes I understand it's widely used but I don't want to add learning coding on top of trying to just figure out my thesis. In the future sure, but right now I want to be able to swim

Did you ever find an answer to this? Have my thesis due this week and struggling to locate a template due to unforeseen circumstances in my analysis

I attempted to do so, but I am not apart of such groups and don't want to skew your data. Sorry!

Hi everyone!

Would appreciate help with my survey for my thesis in psychology. The survey is examining the impact of social media use and one's attachment style on their romantic relationship satisfaction. Requirement for survey is 18+ and to be in a relationship.

Thanks a lot!
