Stats Central Regression Modelling x58805

The core outcome from this course is to recognise that most statistical methods you use can be understood under a single framework, as special cases of (generalised) linear models. Learning statistical methods in a systematic way, instead of as a "cookbook" of different methods, enables you to take a systematic approach to key steps in analysis (like assumption checking) and to extend your skills to handle more complex situations you might encounter in the future (random factors, multivariate analysis, choosing between a set of competing models).

This three-day short course is aimed at applied researchers with little prior experience with R. It assumes knowledge of introductory statistics - you should know about the t-test, linear regression, analysis of variance and know something about orthogonal and nested designs. We will revise these methods on Day 1 so you can be a bit rusty, but should have seen them before.

Make sure you bring your own laptop! We will sort out internet access for you.

Course fees for the three days are:

• UNSW staff, students and other UNSW-affiliated people $450 / $225
• People with no UNSW affiliation $1,500
