This 2-day course provides an introduction to regression modelling approaches. The scope of the course runs from basic principles of regression methods, deciphering the output of statistical analyses, and the practicalities of running these various regression methods.
As part of this course you will be encouraged to think about broader study design issues, including how to deal with confounding, interactions and variable selection.
This is an intermediate-level statistics course intended for researchers/research students who need to use regression modelling in their work. Participants should either have completed the Introductory Biostatistics for Health Researchers Course or have equivalent knowledge.
Please note, participants must come with their own laptop with R or SAS or Stata software installed, and be able to import data sets, generate new variables and be confident using the software they have installed. The University of Otago now offers Stata SE to all staff and students.
