Course content

6 sections17 lectures2h 9m total length
  • Introduction5:58

    In this video, the author background, an overview of the topics covered, and the goals of the course are described.

  • Correlation - Part 16:47

    In this video we take at an example using correlation, which measures the linear relationship between two variables (Part 1 of 2).

    Note: The SPSS data files for the entire course can be downloaded here.

  • Correlation - Part 27:38

    In this video we take at an example using correlation, which measures the linear relationship between two variables (Part 2 of 2).

    Note: A copy of the SPSS output is provided (as Downloadable material) with this lecture.

  • Correlation With More Than Two Variables - Excel4:28

    In this video we look at correlation between a number of different variables, with two variables correlated at a time. The resulting output produces a correlation matrix, which is a table of correlations. This example uses Microsoft Excel.

    Note: The Excel data file and a copy of the output are provided (as Downloadable materials) with this lecture.

  • Correlation with More than Two Variables - SPSS5:24

    In this video we look at correlation between a number of different variables, with two variables correlated at a time. The resulting output produces a correlation matrix, which is a table of correlations. This example uses Microsoft Excel.

Requirements

  • Many of the videos use SPSS in running regression models and some use the Microsfot Excel Data Analysis ToolPak. While SPSS is not required to understand the material or follow the videos, if you want to reproduce the analyses on your own, SPSS will be needed. However, other software (such as R, SAS, or Minitab) can be used to reach the same statistical decisions about the regressions models (as are illustrated here).

Description

November, 2019.

Get marketable and highly sought after skills in this course while substantially increasing your knowledge of data analytics in regression. All course videos created and narrated by an award winning instructor and textbook author of quantitative methods.

This course covers running and evaluating linear regression models (simple regression, multiple regression, and hierarchical regression), including assessing the overall quality of models and interpreting individual predictors for significance. R-Square is explored in depth, including how to interpret R-Square for significance. Together with coverage of simple, multiple and hierarchical regression, we'll also explore correlation, an important statistical procedure that is closely related to regression. 

By the end of this course you will be skilled in running and interpreting your own linear regression analyses, as well as critically evaluating the work of others. Examples of running regression in both SPSS and Excel programs provided. Lectures provided in high quality, HD video with course quizzes available to help cement the concepts. Taught by a PhD award-winning university instructor with over 15 years of teaching experience. At Quantitative Specialists, our highest priority is in creating crystal-clear, accurate, easy-to-follow videos.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone interested in learning more about regression analysis.
  • This course is not for those looking for a general introduction to statistics course. For this we recommend taking a look at our descriptive statistics or inferential statistics courses. (This course specializes in regression analysis.)
  • Those looking to increase their knowledge of regression.
