Students are introduced to organizational, analytical and inference-making processes, using sample data to visually and numerically describe samples and make decisions applying inferential thinking: deduction and induction. The course details how to estimate confidence intervals, test hypotheses and develop estimates and projections for inferential purposes in a variety of contexts and disciplines such as business, social science, biology, economics, and health science. Many different probability distributions are covered. Performing Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), estimating simple linear regressions, and making inference from such analysis is a major theme of this course. The use of spreadsheet-based statistical software to perform computational statistics using large-data sets is an important part of laboratory work.Usually HeldMon Wed 12:45pm–2:10pm, Wed 2:20pm–3:10pm, Thu 2:20pm–3:10pm, Tue Thu 11:10am–12:35pm
