Abstract: Assumptions play a pivotal role in the selection and efficacy of statistical models, as unmet assumptions can lead to flawed conclusions and impact decision-making. In both traditional ...

In this module, we will introduce generalized linear models (GLMs) through the study of binomial data. In particular, we will motivate the need for GLMs; introduce the binomial regression model, ...

In this module, we will introduce the basic conceptual framework for statistical modeling in general, and linear statistical models in particular. In this module, we will learn how to fit linear ...
