Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Quantitative methods, data analytics, and statistical analysis is a key component of decisionmaking for business practitioners and policy makers. This course aims to equip students with the hands-on knowledge and skills necessary to implement, interpret, and communicate quantitative data analysis using computer software and other tools.
The course assumes that students already have a theoretical understanding of statistical inference and basic knowledge of key concepts in research methods. Hence, the emphasis is not placed on analytical theory, but on training students in analyzing data to predict behavioral tendencies (e.g., relative product preferences, purchase choices, and willingness to pay), make forecasts about future outcomes (e.g., likelihood of customer switching, probability of being hired/fired, and expected product sales), make comparisons (e.g., across gender, nationality, or market segments), and assess the efficacy of alternative interventions.
The course primarily relies on the IBM SPSS and the JAMOVI statistical packages, but also utilizes additional and tools such as PROCESS and G*Power. Overall, the course provides students with a toolbox of practical skills that are essential in carrying out empirical projects.

It is recommended that Erasmus students have successfully completed a basic/introductory marketing course at their home university.

- The course and any material related to it (lectures, readings, exams, etc) is in English.
- Students who wish to take this course must register via u:find (with points) during the registra-tion period.
- It is mandatory to attend the first session on 19.04, 2024 (Introduction) – failure to do so auto-matically results in exclusion from the course.
- Registered students who wish to de-register, they must do so electronically by April 25th, 2024, otherwise they automatically “fail” the course.
- The course consists of on-site lab lectures that may be combined with online sessions, if neces-sary.
- The course has “prüfungsimmanenten Charakter”, therefore attendance is mandatory. More than three absences automatically results in failing the course. This also implies that in case of online sessions, students must be present with their cameras on.

The sessions involve a brief introduction to the underlying logic behind the different analytical methods and then focus on hands-on demonstrations and exercises. Sessions are highly interactive with students working individually and/or in groups to solve practical problems in class using specific tools and software under the guidance of the professor who will also provide feedback on how to effectively perform, report, and interpret the various analytical techniques.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

- Class participation
- Class exercises
- Home assignment

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

This course is particularly targeted at students of the Master's in Business Administration/International Business Administration, who wish to advance their quantitative/analytical skills and write their Master thesis in "Marketing".
The course is strongly recommended for students who have already taken “Foundations of Marketing: Data Analysis for Marketing Decisions (VO)”.

Prüfungsstoff

Students work individually or in groups to address business research questions that require performing quantitative data analysis and presenting the results. The exercises focus on individual statistical techniques and take place during the sessions with the instructor guiding the students throughout the process. The home assignment consists of a more comprehensive case study, where students address several different questions by identifying, performing, and reporting the appropriate quantitative techniques.

* Class participation and interaction is a key component of effective learning and ensures the successful completion of the course.

The Repetitorium DAMDiP does not result in a numerical grade. Students receive either a “+” (pass) or a “─“ (fail), depending on how they engaged in the assessment dimensions mentioned above.
