Common Statistical Tests in R (t-tests, linear regression, ANOVA)
Details
By the end of this event, participants will be able to perform one- and two-sample t-tests, linear regression, and ANOVA. We will discuss how to understand the output and look at diagnostics of the tests. We will not focus on data cleaning and data for examples will already be in ideal format. If time allows, we will discuss logistic regression.
Agenda:
• 6:30 pm - 6:45pm - Introductions
• 6:45 pm - 8:15 pm - Examples and practice
• 8:15 pm - 8:30 pm - Wrap up
All events are intended for women as leaders, mentors, members, and attendees. We are emphatically queer and trans friendly. Men are welcomed to attend as guests and must be accompanied by the R-Lady who invited them (i.e., attend through the "guest" function on their host's RSVP, not as a separate RSVP). This group was created so those who identify as women have a comfortable place to learn. If you would like to attend and feel excluded, please contact the event organizer.
Who is this for?
This meetup is for beginners who have little to no experience programming in R. We will use live coding demonstrations and participates will actively engage with the instructor throughout the workshop.
Before you join, please install the most recent version of R as well as RStudio on your computer before attending this meetup event. Here are links to free downloads for R (https://cran.r-project.org/) and RStudio (https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download). Downloading and installing both of these programs before this meetup will help us keep to our schedule and make sure you learn the most you can while at the meetup event.
If you have trouble installing the software, please contact Stephanie at least 48 hours before the event so we can find a time to meet and work through software installation issues.
What should I bring?
Please login to Zoom using a laptop or computer with the capabilities to run R and RStudio. See information above about how to install R and RStudio.
Where will it take place?
