| Course ID: | STAT 6220. 3 hours. |
| Course Title: | Introduction to Statistical Methods II |
Course
Description: | A continuation of Introduction to Statistical Methods I.
Introduces additional statistical methods not covered in the
first course. Emphasizes applications in the social and
behavioral sciences. Topics include inference for categorical
variables, multiple regression, logistic regression, one-way
ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, ANCOVA, and nonparametric methods. Uses
point-and-click statistical software. |
| Oasis Title: | Intro to Statistical Method II |
| Prerequisite: | STAT 6210 |
Semester Course
Offered: | Offered fall, spring and summer semester every year. |
| Grading System: | A-F (Traditional) |
|
| Course Objectives: | This is the second of a two-course sequence on applied
statistics at an introductory level which emphasizes
applications in the social and behavioral sciences. Upon
completion of the course, students will know the proper use of
different methods for the analysis of two-way contingency table
data (categorical data analysis), multiple regression, ANOVA,
ANCOVA, and some nonparametric methods. Students will review
correlation and simple regression before learning logistic
regression and multiple linear regression. They will be
introduced to the one-way analysis of variance, two-way
analysis of variance, and analysis of covariance models. They
will know how to apply linear regression and analysis of
variance for the purpose of data analysis to their own research
problems using point-and-click statistical software such as
Minitab and JMP. |
| Topical Outline: | This course will review categorical data analysis, one and
two-sample inference. The course will then cover logistic
regression, multiple linear regression, one-way analysis of
variance, two-way analysis of variance, analysis of covariance,
and elementary nonparametric methods. |
