Professional Data Analysis Services
Fee-Based Consulting
Data Analytics and Research Methodology offers professional data analysis and related services at hourly rates. There are two broad contexts for these services: Post Award and Ad Hoc. For post award services, Data Analytics and Research Methodology (DARM) can be included in the proposal budget as a resource for analyzing the data resulting from the grant. In some instances, DARM personnel can serve as evaluators for the project. Ad hoc services involve simply contracting with DARM as needed for data analysis in other contexts.
In either case, services are tailored to your particular needs. Data Analytics and Research Methodology (DARM) can analyze your data for you, with as much or as little of your participation as you desire. We can work with popular software packages such as SPSS, Mplus, Amos, HLM, NVivo, and others.
It is important to note the ways in which professional data services differ from the free consulting available from DARM. Free consulting is limited in time and uses a teaching model. Professional data service time does not require you to be an active participant and is limited only by what you seek to pay and our availability.

Additional Information
As with our free consulting services, our intention is not to accrue co-authorships. Nevertheless, academic ethics of co-authorship apply (see Responsible Conduct of Research). Should we apply standard research or analytical techniques in a novel or creative way, or develop new techniques for your work, co-authorship may be appropriate.
