Research Engineer will help you make the correct decisions for your research

Research Engineer is an automated decision tree focused on helping researchers make the correct decisions when conducting research and analyzing data with statistics.

There are decision trees available in Research Engineer that can help researchers write research questions, choose research designs, understand statistical power, conduct sample size calculations, use evidence-based medicine principles, calculate diagnostic testing and epidemiological calculations, select precise and accurate variables, create and maintain research databases, create reliable valid survey instruments, and perform psychometrics.

Within each decision tree, you will be presented with a series of questions. You can click on the buttons and links that best represents your answers to the questions. This allows you to move forward in the decision tree and to make the correct choices based on your research questions.
