Statistics 1: Introduction to ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression
STAT1 : ST142
This introductory course is for SAS software users who perform statistical analyses using SAS/STAT software. The focus is on t tests, ANOVA, and linear regression, and includes a brief introduction to logistic regression. This course (or equivalent knowledge) is a prerequisite to many of the courses in the statistical analysis curriculum.

A more advanced treatment of ANOVA and regression occurs in the Statistics 2: ANOVA and Regression course. A more advanced treatment of logistic regression occurs in the Categorical Data Analysis Using Logistic Regression course and the Predictive Modeling Using Logistic Regression course.
Learn How To
  • Generate descriptive statistics and explore data with graphs.
  • Perform analysis of variance and apply multiple comparison techniques.
  • Perform linear regression and assess the assumptions.
  • Use regression model selection techniques to aid in the choice of predictor variables in multiple regression.
  • Use diagnostic statistics to assess statistical assumptions and identify potential outliers in multiple regression.
  • Use chi-square statistics to detect associations among categorical variables.
  • Fit a multiple logistic regression model.
  • Score new data using developed models.
    • Who Should Attend
    Statisticians, researchers, and business analysts who use SAS programming to generate analyses using either continuous or categorical response (dependent) variables
    Prerequisites
    Before attending this course, you should:;
  • Have completed the equivalent of an undergraduate course in statistics covering p-values, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, and regression.
  • Be able to execute SAS programs and create SAS data sets. You can gain this experience by completing the SAS Programming 1: Essentials course.
    • SAS Products Covered
    SAS/STAT
