Dr. Andreas Bengesser, Mag. Georg Wernhart2SWS4ECTSLecture contentsThe students gain knowledge of quantitative survey methods. Initially they work on descriptive statistical methods for the presentation and processing of data, such as location and dispersion measures or contingency tables. Subsequently, the elementary methods of inferential statistics, such as correlation, significance tests, regressions and variance analyses are taught to the students. The main focus then lies on the detailed analysis of the data and their correct interpretation in terms of content. In this course the students also learn the basic steps of a common statistical data preparation and evaluation programme. For the applications, mainly empirical studies from clinical social work are used. This ensures the closest possible practical reference to Clinical Social Work. The course considers the distinction between cross-sectional vs. longitudinal data collection (individual case analysis) and examines how qualitative and quantitative data can be combined.Assessment methodsFinal examTeaching methodsLecture, DiscussionLanguageGerman> Quantitative Research Methods VO Spatial and Clinical Social Work moreQuantitative Research Methods VOLector: FH-Prof. Mag.

Dr. Andreas Bengesser2SWS4ECTSLecture contentsThe focus is on different regression analysis methods such as linear and logistic regression as well as trend analyses. Based on the respective possible questions that can be dealt with by using different methods, the students are taught through practical examples about the data requirements, the necessary calculation procedures, the application to social science data by means of a statistical software package and the interpretation of the results. The students try out regression-analytical procedures with statistical software using exercise data. In this way, the students are introduced to multivariate correlation analyses with cross-sectional data. Furthermore, they learn to analyse longitudinal data by means of trend analyses and are thus introduced to quantitative individual case analysis. This prepares students to evaluate Clinical Social Work practice as well as to independently implement their own research projects within their Master's thesis. The examples shown in the course are used to practice and to work out how a mixed methods approach could be carried out.Assessment methodsFinal examTeaching methodsLecture, Discussion, ExerciceLanguageGerman> Advanced Quantitative Research Methods VO Spatial and Clinical Social Work moreAdvanced Quantitative Research Methods VOLector: FH-Prof. Mag. Dr. Andreas Bengesser2SWS4ECTSLecture contentsThe focus is on procedures for reducing many observations to a few groups (cluster analyses) and on procedures for reducing many variables to a few latent constructs (factor analysis). These procedures complete the analysis methods for cross-sectional data. The data basis is a variety of data sets that are freely available for scientific purposes. The application of the analysis methods is carried out in an application-oriented manner by means of a statistical software package. The interpretation of the results is explained using practical examples. This prepares students to describe social spaces with quantitative data as well as to independently implement their own research projects within their Master's thesis.Assessment methodsFinal examTeaching methodsLecture, DiscussionLanguageGerman> Applied Multivariant Data Analysis 2 VO Spatial and Clinical Social Work moreApplied Multivariant Data Analysis 2 VOLector: FH-Prof. Mag.

Dr. Andreas Bengesser1SWS2ECTSLecture contentsStarting with an introduction to the issue of location, different theoretical approaches are presented that deal with location choice and spatial structure from a microeconomic or macroeconomic perspective. Beyond the individual company, the interaction of companies, households and the state is examined. The theories presented illustrate reasons for the spatial concentration of economic activity. In order for the students to be able to conduct regional and urban economic studies themselves (e.g. in the context of short analyses, etc.), knowledge about empirical methodology is also taught. Various measures of spatial concentration and regional specialisation are taught.Assessment methodsFinal examTeaching methodsLecture, DiscussionLanguageGermanPublications The publications of Andreas Bengesser written at FH Campus Wien can be found in our publication database, others in the personal web space.
