Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Students are introduced to the free software environment R ( https://www.r-project.org ) and how to perform statistical analyses using R. Each unit includes theory and practice: different statistical methods are first presented and should then be applied by the students to analyze provided datasets.

It is strongly recommended to bring a LAPTOP to the course, but working in groups of two using one laptop is also possible.

R is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux (for more information visit: https://www.r-project.org ).

Based on the learned methods and by gaining a general understanding for R, students should be able to perform their own statistical analyses for their master or PhD thesis, but also to further familiarize with R and other (statistical) methods.

Included topics: Statistical basics, installation of R and fundamentals, simple graphics, basic statistical tests (e.g., Shapiro-Wilk test, Levene’s test, t-test, U-test, ANOVA, Chi-squared test, correlations), linear models (2-way ANOVA, multiple regression, ANCOVA), linear mixed models, generalized linear (mixed) models (e.g., for count, proportion, or binary data), and further selected methods.
