Co-located with STT 216, STT 416Prerequisites: STT 211, STT 212, or STT 213.
Description: STT 216 offers a second course in foundational techniques of statistical analyses, focusing on advanced inference topics (power, inference for variances and correlations, nonparametric testing, exact binomial tests, violations of assumptions), regression modeling (OLS regression, multiple regression, model diagnostics, outlier analysis, transformations, variable selection, logistic models), and analysis of variance (1- and 2-way ANOVA, contrasts, multiple comparisons, analysis of covariance). This course is non-calculus based and will focus on the practical use of statistical techniques for data analyses rather than on theory. As such, this course will rely upon the use of statistical software as a tool for examining data and compiling results into presentable reports.
