This practical course is directed towards advanced students in Evolutionary Anthropology. Students acquire knowledge on how to derive and investigate a research question, develop suitable questionnaires and behavior catalogues, observe behavior), followed by statistical analysis and interpretation of the results. We will use cutting-edge observational and morphometric methods. The course will conclude with an oral exam.
