Testing hypotheses
Testing hypotheses on individual variables
Testing on the relationship between categorical variables
Testing on the difference between two group means
Testing on differences between more than two group means
Testing on the relationship between scale variables
Predicting a scale variable: Regression
Introduction to Bayesian statistics
Overview of multivariate procedures

This course provides an application-oriented introduction to the statistical component of IBM SPSS Statistics. Students will review several statistical techniques and discuss situations in which they would use each technique, how to set up the analysis, and how to interpret the results. This includes a broad range of techniques for exploring and summarizing data, as well as investigating and testing relationships. Students will gain an understanding of when and why to use these various techniques and how to apply them with confidence, interpret their output, and graphically display the results.
