Jason Newsom’s
USP 554/654 Data Analysis II
Description
|
This course takes an
applied approach to statistical analysis and research methodology and is the
second in a two-course sequence. The goal is to provide students with
statistical background, conceptual understanding, technical writing skills,
computer application, and the ability to apply these skills to realistic data
analysis problems and research designs.
Topics include simple regression and correlation, multiple regression,
and logistic regression. The laboratory (USP 554/654L) must be taken
concurrently. Recommended
prerequisite: USP 534/634 Data Analysis or an equivalent course approved by
the instructor and prior experience with statistical software. All download files pdf
unless otherwise noted. |
