This series will include information about music therapy research, including quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, and other types of research. The content of each of the workshops is cumulative; therefore, we encourage everyone to attend both workshops, if possible.

Examples from music therapy research will be included. Participants will have an opportunity to apply basic research skills in planning research studies that they might do. Emphasis will be on actual questions that participants have and research that can be done by clinicians.

*Note: A certificate of attendance can be provided at the conclusion of the workshop, upon request.
