Ratios are everywhere in statistics—coefficient of variation, hazard ratio, odds ratio, the list goes on. You see them reported in the literature and in your output.
You comment on them in your reports. You even (kinda) understand them. Or, maybe, not quite?
Please join Elaine Eisenbeisz as she presents an overview of the how and why of various ratios we use often in statistical practice.
Which ones you ask? How about:
- Coefficient of determination
- Coefficient of variation
- Correlation coefficient
- Hazard ratio
- Likelihood ratio
- Odds ratio
- Relative risk ratio
- Variance inflation factor
Note: This training is an exclusive benefit to members of the Statistically Speaking Membership Program and part of the Stat’s Amore Trainings Series. Each Stat’s Amore Training is approximately 90 minutes long.
