Event Description
- Full Description:
- The course will provide participants with an understanding of regression and introduce participants to the analysis of cross-sectional data.
This workshop combines theory and hands-on training using Stata. It will focus on methods for understanding relationships between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables. The module will demonstrate how to look for relationships and associations.
The first part of the module will introduce models for the analysis of data when the response is continuous.
The second part focuses on statistical methods for the analysis of categorical response variables.

1. The different types of data and how this affects the choice of analytic method
