Linear Models (online)

Wednesday 9 - Friday 11 June 2021 

Scope

In this module we continue with Regression, ANOVA, and ANCOVA, set in the general framework of Linear Models. We see this module as the central module, and advise all participants to partake as it forms the basis of other advanced modules such as "Generalized Linear Models" and "Mixed Linear Models". We look at topics like parameter estimation and interpretation, checking model assumptions, regression diagnostics, analysis of unbalanced designs and multiple comparisons. The main statistical software used in this course is R.

  • Day 2, morning: Regression analysis / Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
