Member Training: Using Excel to Graph Predicted Values from Regression Models

May 1st, 2013 by

Graphing predicted values from a regression model or means from an ANOVA makes interpretation of results much easier.

Every statistical software will graph predicted values for you. But the more complicated your model, the harder it can be to get the graph you want in the format you want.

Excel isn’t all that useful for estimating the statistics, but it has some very nice features that are useful for doing data analysis, one of which is graphing.

In this webinar, I will demonstrate how to calculate predicted means from a linear and a logistic regression model, then graph them. It will be particularly useful to you if you don’t have a very clear sense of where those predicted values come from.

Member Training: Hierarchical Regressions

April 1st, 2013 by

Hierarchical regression is a very common approach to model building that allows you to see the incremental contribution to a model of sets of predictor variables.Stage 2

Popular for linear regression in many fields, the approach can be used in any type of regression model — logistic regression, linear mixed models, or even ANOVA.

In this webinar, we’ll go over the concepts and steps, and we’ll look at how it can be useful in different contexts.

Member Training: Exploratory Factor Analysis

March 1st, 2013 by

Many variables we want to measure just can’t be directly measured with a single variable. Instead you have to combine a set of variables into a single index.

But how do you determine which variables to combine and how best to combine them?

Exploratory Factor Analysis.

EFA is a method for finding a measurement for one or more unmeasurable (latent) variables from a set of related observed variables. It is especially useful for scale construction.

In this webinar, you will learn through three examples an overview of EFA, including:

  • The five steps to conducting an EFA
  • Key concepts like rotation
  • Factor scores
  • The importance of interpretability

Member Training: Types of Regression Models and When to Use Them

February 1st, 2013 by

Linear, Logistic, Tobit, Cox, Poisson, Zero Inflated… The list of regression models goes on and on before you even get to things like ANCOVA or Linear Mixed Models.

In this webinar, we will explore types of regression models, how they differ, how they’re the same, and most importantly, when to use each one.
