We Teach You to Own Your Analysis.
Not Just Receive It.

There is a real difference between a service that does your work for you and one that makes sure you understand every decision. We are the second one — and here is exactly what that looks like.

Let's Be Clear About What We Do — and What We Don't

What DATiiQ does

  • Guide you through choosing the right statistical method for your research question
  • Run the analysis alongside you — explaining every step, every output, every decision
  • Teach you what the results mean in plain language you can confidently repeat
  • Help you build visualisations and presentation-ready charts from your own data
  • Prepare you for the questions your supervisor will ask — so you can answer from genuine understanding, not memory
  • Coach you on how to present your methodology and findings clearly and confidently

What DATiiQ does not do

  • Write thesis chapters, results sections or conclusions on your behalf
  • Produce analysis for you to submit without understanding what it means
  • Replace your supervisor, your academic support services or your own learning
  • Work in ways that violate your university's academic integrity policy
  • Guarantee specific results or grades for your work

The DATiiQ Method™ — How It Works in Practice

Every student engagement follows the same four-step process. Here is what that actually looks like in a real session.

Step 1

We Start With Your Research, Not Our Script

Before we touch any data, we understand your research question, your design, and what you are actually trying to find out. The methodology decisions we make together will be specific to your study — not a template applied to your data.

Step 2

We Choose the Method Together — and Explain Why

We don't just run a test and hand you the output. We explain which statistical method fits your data type, your research question and your sample — and why the alternatives would not be appropriate. You will be able to explain this to your supervisor because you were part of the decision.

Step 3

We Interpret Results in Your Language

Statistical software produces output that can look intimidating. We translate every table, every p-value and every coefficient into plain language — and more importantly, into the language of your specific research. What does this mean for your hypothesis? What does it say about your data? Those are the questions we answer together.

Step 4

We Prepare You to Defend Your Work

Your viva, your presentation, your supervisor meeting — these require you to own your methodology. We walk through the questions you are likely to face, help you articulate your reasoning, and make sure you leave our session genuinely confident in what you did and why. Not rehearsed. Confident.

Our Position on Academic Integrity

We think this matters enough to say clearly.

DATiiQ operates as a statistical coaching and education service. Our model is straightforward: we work with you, not for you.

Every Finnish university and university of applied sciences operates under the Finnish Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (TENK 2023), which requires that academic work reflects the genuine intellectual contribution of the student. We fully support this principle — and our entire methodology is built around it.

Working with a statistics tutor, an analytical consultant, or a private coach is a normal and accepted part of academic life. What is not acceptable is submitting work you did not understand or could not replicate.

DATiiQ sits firmly in the first category. You will understand your analysis. You will be able to replicate your decisions. You will know why every choice was made. That is the point.

If you are unsure whether working with a statistics coach complies with your institution's specific policies, we encourage you to:

  1. Review your university's academic integrity or good scientific practice guidelines
  2. Speak with your thesis supervisor — most supervisors actively encourage students to seek statistical support
  3. Contact your university's student services or library research support team

We are happy to provide a description of our services to share with your supervisor if that would be helpful.

This Is for Students Who Want to Actually Learn

DATiiQ works best for students who are genuinely committed to understanding their research — not students looking for a shortcut.

The Overwhelmed but Motivated Student

You have collected your data. You know roughly what you are looking for. But SPSS output leaves you confused and your supervisor is not a statistician either. You want someone to explain it properly so you can move forward with confidence.

The International Student

Statistics is hard enough in your first language. Working through quantitative methods in a second or third language adds a layer of challenge that has nothing to do with your intelligence or commitment. We work through everything at your pace, in clear English, until it genuinely makes sense.

The Professional Doing a Part-Time Degree

You have been out of education for a while. You know your field deeply but academic statistical methods feel foreign. You need someone who can connect the theory to real-world reasoning — not someone who assumes you remember your undergraduate methods module.

What the Process Actually Feels Like

We cannot share client names for confidentiality — but here is what students consistently tell us after working through the DATiiQ Method™.

I came in thinking I would just get my SPSS output explained. I left actually understanding why I had used a multiple regression and what each coefficient meant. My viva went much better than expected.
Master's student, social sciences
My supervisor had suggested I get statistical support. I was nervous about whether this was allowed — but she was completely fine with it once I explained it was coaching, not someone doing it for me.
Bachelor's student, business administration
The part I found most useful was the practice questions session. We went through every question my supervisor might ask and I learned to answer from the data, not from notes.
Research assistant, health sciences
