Course leaders: Meredith Martyn and Dr Giorgio Di Gessa

This course provides an introduction to statistics in health and the social sciences which is taught in pre-recorded lecture format, and a pre-set computer exercise where you will learn to use Stata syntax to interrogate a dataset, undertake management and manipulation of large complex data (such as recode variables, create new variables, and combine several datasets), and conduct simple statistical analyses (t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, chi-square test, and simple linear regression).

            Session 1: Descriptives and the Normal Distribution

On completion of this course, students will:

  • Understand the concepts behind basic descriptive and inferential statistics for social science research, and how to interpret these statistics
  • Understand the principles of correlation, t-tests, chi-square and regression in social science research, and how to interpret these tests
  • Demonstrate competence in a basic level of data manipulation using Stata to prepare social science datasets for statistical analysis
  • Demonstrate competence in the use of Stata to interrogate social science datasets using descriptive statistics and commonly used statistical tests
  • Understand how complex social science large scale datasets are structured and the implications of this
