Dear researchers,
We are happy to inform you that the FSW Summer School courses in Leiden are open for registration.
R Introduction, 29 June, 1 July, 3 July 2026
The focus of this course is on performing analyses in R, not statistical theory. Participants can attend any 1, 2, or 3 days if they have sufficient knowledge to do so.
Meta-analysis, 7-10 July 2026
Performance of a meta-analytic study can be very valuable. A meta-analysis enables the researcher 1) to obtain a good overview of the state-of-the art of the research field, and 2) to get insight in the way the research problem is tackled, analyzed and reported in existing literature. In this course the core issues of meta-analysis are explained and practiced.
Functional MRI Analysis (Basics) 25 & 26 June 2026
Functional MRI is one of the most widely used methods in (cognitive) neuroscience. This course will teach the basics of fMRI analysis.
Qualitative interviewing 22-25 June 2026 (Spui, The Hague)
Interviewing is a widely used method of data collection in the social sciences. However, doing qualitative interviews well is an art and a technique whose successful execution requires targeted training, practice and constant reflexivity. This course will introduce course participants to qualitative interviewing as a data collection/generation technique. We will cover different types of qualitative interviewing techniques, the selection of participants (sampling), access to participants, questionnaire design, data analysis (including different forms of coding), data management, and the ethics of interviewing. The course is meant for both those who are new to qualitative interviewing and those who already have some experience with it to review best practices and improve interview techniques.
