Repository of code for lab assignments completed for PQHS 431. These lab assignments required demonstration of mastery for core principles and fundamental skills with a few requiring deeper dives into material that was more technically sophisticated. Using R and R Studio, I demonstrated my ability to clean, visualize, and analyze provided data sets. Some of the labs required short essays reacting to various topics presented in David Spiegelhalter's book, The Art of Statistics: How to Learn from Data.
Key topics included:
- Exploratory data analysis
- Placing research questions into statistical frameworks
- Study development
- Data handling
- Statistical comparisons
- Proper use of multi-predictor models for continuous and discrete data
