One question I always get in my Repeated Measures Workshop is:
“Okay, now that I understand how to run a linear mixed model for my study, how do I write up the results?”
This is a great question.
There are many pieces of the linear mixed models output that are identical to those of any linear model–regression coefficients, F tests, means.
But there is also a lot that is new, like intraclass correlations and (more…)
All resampling techniques are based on the idea of repeatedly estimating a statistic based on subsets of the sample.
There are many practical applications, including estimating standard errors when they can’t be based on a theoretical distribution (a.k.a., when distributional assumptions are not met).
In this webinar, we’ll talk about some of the most common resampling techniques, including the jacknife and bootstrap, how they work, and situations in which they’re useful.

Why does ANOVA give main effects in the presence of interactions, but Regression gives marginal effects?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of dummy coding and effect coding? When does it make sense to use one or the other?
How does each one work, really?
In this webinar, we’re going to go step-by-step through a few examples of how dummy and effect coding each tell you different information about the effects of categorical variables, and therefore which one you want in each situation.

As you may have read in one of our recent newsletters, this month The Analysis Factor hit two milestones:
We’re quite happy about both, and seriously grateful to all members of our community.
So to celebrate and to say thanks, we decided to do a giveaway to 6 randomly-chosen newsletter subscribers.
I just sent emails to the 6 winners this morning.
Not too long ago, a client asked for help with using Spotlight Analysis to interpret an interaction in a regression model.
Spotlight Analysis? I had never heard of it.
As it turns out, it’s a (snazzy) new name for an old way of interpreting an interaction between a continuous and a categorical grouping variable in a regression model. (more…)
While parametric regression models like linear and logistic regression are still the mainstay of statistical modeling, they are not the only, nor always the best, approach to predicting outcome variables.
Classification and Regression Trees (CART) are a nonparametric approach to using values of predictors to find good predictions of values of a response variable.
On each step, the values of a predictor variable are optimally split such that they predict the values of the response variable. The set of splits across multiple predictors leads to a tree.
CART models work for either categorical or numerical response variables and predictor variables, and they are especially good at revealing complex interactions among predictors. So they work well as either an exploratory technique before or a predictive model instead of logistic or linear regression.
In this webinar, we’ll explore CART modelling and discuss what it is, which options work when, and how to interpret the output.
