    Included in this course is an e-book and a set of slides. The course is divided into two parts. In the first part, students are introduced to the theory behind count models. The theory is explained in an intuitive way while keeping the math at a minimum. The course starts with an introduction to count tables, where students learn how to calculate the incidence-rate ratio. From there, the course moves on to Poisson regression where students learn how to include continuous, binary, and categorical variables. Students are then introduced to the concept of overdispersion and the use of negative binomial models to address this issue. Other count models such as truncated models and zero-inflated models are discussed. In the second part of the course, students learn how to apply what they have learned using Stata. In this part, students will walk through a large project in order to fit Poisson, negative binomial, and zero-inflated models. The tools used to compare these models are also introduced.

      November, 2019. Multivariate Analysis of Variance, a popular but frequently perplexing procedure in statistics, is used to test two or more groups on two or more dependent variables. Mindful of the frustration and confusion that is often experienced with this procedure, this course was carefully designed by a specialist in quantitative methods (statistics) who has successfully taught MANOVA to graduate students from a variety of different backgrounds. Several students who thought they couldn’t understand this procedure were later explaining how they not only understood it, but actually found it to be fun! Specifically, this course takes the viewer step-by-step through running and interpreting a number of different multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA) in SPSS. Several different examples of MANOVA are covered, including: MANOVA with 2 Groups (Also Known as Hotelling’s T-Squared) MANOVA with 3 Groups Post-Hoc Tests for Problems with 3 or More Groups Two-way MANOVA Equal Covariance Matrix Assumption of MANOVA Explained Step-by-Step All tests include a detailed, step-by-step explanation of results, including how to assess the results for significance, with written results provided for each test covered. Enroll today and be confused by MANOVA no longer!

Understanding statistics is essential to understand research in the social and behavioral sciences. In this course you will learn the basics of statistics; not just how to calculate them, but also how to evaluate them. This course will also prepare you for the next course in the specialization - the course Inferential Statistics. In the first part of the course we will discuss methods of descriptive statistics. You will learn what cases and variables are and how you can compute measures of central tendency (mean, median and mode) and dispersion (standard deviation and variance). Next, we discuss how to assess relationships between variables, and we introduce the concepts correlation and regression. The second part of the course is concerned with the basics of probability: calculating probabilities, probability distributions and sampling distributions. You need to know about these things in order to understand how inferential statistics work. The third part of the course consists of an introduction to methods of inferential statistics - methods that help us decide whether the patterns we see in our data are strong enough to draw conclusions about the underlying population we are interested in. We will discuss confidence intervals and significance tests. You will not only learn about all these statistical concepts, you will also be trained to calculate and generate these statistics yourself using freely available statistical software. Statistics encompasses the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data and provides a framework for thinking about data. Statistics is used in many areas of scientific and social research, is critical to business and manufacturing, and provides the mathematical foundation for machine learning and data mining. In this course, students will gain a comprehensive introduction to the concepts and techniques of statistics as applied to a wide variety of disciplines. This course covers basic statistics, such as calculating averages, medians, modes, and standard deviations. With easy-to-understand examples combined with real-world applications from the worlds of business, sports, education, entertainment, and more. This course provides you with the skills and knowledge you need to start analyzing data. You'll explore how to use data and apply statistics to real-life problems and situations What will you learn? This course is your complete guide to the fundamentals of statistics and probability 1. Descriptive Statistics 2. Measures of Central Tendency 3. Correlation 4. Linear Regression 5. Probability Theory 6. Discrete and Continuous Probability Distributions 7. Sampling Distributions 8. Confidence Intervals 9. Significance Tests. The first chapter will focus on one variable analysis - we start with discussing the various descriptive statistics , how data can be represented using frequency tables and then move on to discussing measures of central tendency and their interpretation . The second module will focus on Correlation and Simple Linear Regression and show how these can be calculated in Excel using various formulae. We will then also discuss the interpretation of these results The next module will focus on introducing the fundamental concepts of Probability Theory like the sample space, events, randomness and basic set theory . We will then move onto discussing conditional probability and introduce the concept of mutually exclusive events .  You will also learn how to calculate probabilities within this section. In the fourth module, we will discuss Probability Distributions and show the difference between a continuous and discrete distributions, using the Normal and Binomial distributions as key examples. The next chapter will discuss Sampling Distributions and introduce the Central Limit Theorem and discuss why sampling is important . We will also link the Central Limit Theorem to the normal distribution and explain why this result is so critical to statistical analysis. The sixth module will focus on confidence intervals and the use of intervals to estimate the true average or proportion of a distribution. We will also discuss the relationship between the significance level (alpha) and the confidence level and teach you how to generate your own confidence intervals in Excel. The last module will introduce the concept of statistical Hypothesis Testing - what it can tell you and what it can't (i.e. you can't prove anything); how to define the null and alternate hypotheses correctly; getting the direction and 'tails' of your distribution correct and finally Type I and Type II errors with example and interpretations. This course is the go-to course for building a solid foundation in statistics and probability , not only teaching you the theory but giving you a comprehensive set of real examples you can work on which hasn't been seen in any other course on this platform. There are helpful quizzes included in all sections that will help you to cement the concepts learnt. Also, we are committed to add new practice activities so that you can practically apply the concepts learnt in this course.
