Given the importance of systematic observation in Clinical and Health Psychology and its multiple applications, the course will present the observational methodology, which can be considered a mixed method in itself, and will be developed throughout its different stages (approach, types, low-intervention designs, construction of instruments, coding and recording, sampling, obtaining parameters, data quality control, and data analysis). Likewise, some of the most widely used computer programs will be shown, and the practical aspects will be discussed in depth.
