Omitir Sobre este curso

Statistics 1 Part 2 is a self-paced course from LSE which aims to introduce you to and develop your understanding of essential statistical concepts, methods and techniques, emphasising the applications of these methods. This course can be taken alone or as part of the LSE MicroBachelors program in Statistics Fundamentals or the LSE MicroBachelors program in Mathematics and Statistics Fundamentals.

Part 2, Statistical Methods, covers the following topics:

● Hypothesis testing I

● Hypothesis testing II

● Contingency tables and the chi-squared test

● Sampling design and some ideas underlying causation

● Correlation and linear regression

Statistics 1 Part 2 forms part of a series of courses which focuses on the application of statistical methods in management, economics and the social sciences. Attention will focus on how to approach statistical problems, as well as the interpretation of tables and results.

    Statistics 1 Part 2 assumes no prior knowledge of statistics. Although there are no formal prerequisites for this course, it is strongly recommended to study the LSE statistics courses in order, given the cumulative nature of the subject matter. Ideas of probability, inference and multivariate analysis are introduced and are further built on in Statistics 2 Parts 1 and 2.
