Overview
Statistics skills are crucial for researchers in psychology, but research suggests that graduate training is insufficient to meet modern quantitative research demands. Consequently, researchers tend to seek training outside of their current or former graduate programme. However, little is known regarding the frequency of use and perceptions surrounding various supplementary statistical resources. This study aimed to investigate how psychology researchers acquire statistical training beyond their graduate programme, how necessary and useful they find various resources, and if there were differences based on student status. The final sample included 280 academic researchers in Canada or the United States. Participants engaged with statistical content more frequently than limited prior research suggests. We found that online resources and quantitative method articles were the most frequently used, statistical consultants had the highest perceived usefulness, and quantitative method articles had high perceived necessity. Student researchers, on average, rated most of the statistical resources as more necessary than researchers with a PhD, with notable differences for online resources and statistical consultants. Usefulness ratings and frequency of use, however, were fairly similar across the groups. Implications and recommendations for students, researchers, instructors and programme administrators are discussed. Data and study materials can be found at https://osf.io/673kj/.
Les compétences en statistiques sont essentielles pour les chercheurs en psychologie, mais les recherches suggèrent que la formation universitaire n'est pas suffisante pour répondre aux exigences actuelles de la recherche quantitative. Par conséquent, les chercheurs ont tendance à rechercher une formation en dehors de leur programme universitaire actuel ou antérieur. Or, l'on sait peu de choses sur la fréquence d'utilisation et les perceptions des différentes ressources statistiques supplémentaires. Cette étude visait à examiner comment les chercheurs en psychologie acquièrent une formation en statistiques au-delà de leur programme universitaire, dans quelle mesure ils jugent les différentes ressources nécessaires et utiles, et s'il existe des différences en fonction du statut des étudiants. L'échantillon final comprenait 280 chercheurs universitaires au Canada ou aux États-Unis. Les participants ont utilisé des contenus statistiques plus fréquemment que ne le suggèrent les recherches antérieures limitées. Nous avons constaté que les ressources en ligne et les articles sur les méthodes quantitatives étaient les plus fréquemment utilisés, que les consultants en statistiques étaient perçus comme les plus utiles et que les articles sur les méthodes quantitatives étaient jugés très nécessaires. En moyenne, les étudiants chercheurs ont jugé la plupart des ressources statistiques plus nécessaires que les chercheurs titulaires d'un doctorat, avec des différences notables pour les ressources en ligne et les consultants en statistiques. Toutefois, les notes attribuées à l'utilité et la fréquence d'utilisation étaient assez similaires entre les groupes. Les implications et les recommandations pour les étudiants, les chercheurs, les enseignants et les administrateurs de programmes sont examinées.

Public Significance Statement
This study found that researchers frequently use various statistics resources, contradicting limited research suggesting poor methodological engagement in psychology. Online resources and research articles were frequently used, while research articles and statistical consultants were considered the most useful statistical resources.
