Aims, contents and method of the course

The course gives an introduction to regression analysis, one of the most important statistical tools in quantitative social science. The main focus of the course is on multivariate linear regression.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

At the end of course, participants should be able (a) to understand how regression analysis works, (b) to read and interpret published regression results correctly, and (c) to run simple regression analyses on their own.

Examination topics

The course takes place in a computer lab. Course sessions are a mix of lectures of theory and guided exercises with the computer. We will use the statistics software Stata. Neither prior knowledge of this software package or any other statistics software is necessary nor are enhanced statistical or mathematical skills required.
