ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): 4.00 Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.

(in Polish) Kurs dla specjalizacji 315

Short description:

The course is intended for students that want to learn ordinary least squares (OLS)analysis in order to apply it in their own research and/or to evaluate the work of others.

The course will consist of 20h of theoretical lecture and 10h of practical workshop.

 The focus of LECTURE part will be on reviewing logic of assumptions, possibilities and limitations of OLS regression analysis.

 The focus of WORKSHOP part will be on practical issues such as selecting the appropriate analysis, preparing data for analysis, interpreting results, and presenting results of a complex nature.

The primary goal of the course is to develop an applied and intuitive understanding of the covered statistical material.

Learning outcomes:

Students

 Will learn the basics assumptions and logic behind OLS regression analysis

 Will develop skills with a range of practical procedures in order to diagnose and prepare data, build model and eventually run OLS regression analysis.

 get acquainted with the statistical computing system SPSS (R-studio) and with its use for manipulation and analysis of statistical data.

NOTE: primary examples will be done in SPSS, however I’ll introduce some examples in R. You are allowed (and encouraged) to do all your stat homework in R-studio

The primary goal of the course is to develop an applied and intuitive understanding of the covered statistical material.

Covered material will deal mostly with Multiple Regression analysis including:

 Model specification and interpretation

 Diagnostics (tests and plots)

 Analysis of residuals and outliers

 Multicollinearity

 Autocorrelation

 Hierarchical models

 Dummy (dichotomous) independent variables

 Dummy coding of nominal variables

 Inducing linearity by nonlinear transformations of independent variables

 Multiplicative Interaction terms

 Mediation analysis

Specific topics and amount of covered material will depend in part on the interests of the students and class progress.
