Course Overview
This course supplements several of the topics in the “Statistics, Hypothesis Testing, & Regression” course. Hypothesis Tests for relationships between 2 categorical variables is discussed. Regression models for non-continuous responses are covered in detail. Nonparametric hypothesis tests are covered (for cases where the distribution assumptions of the standard tests are violated).
