This course is for SAS software users who perform statistical analyses using SAS/STAT software. The focus is on t-tests, ANOVA, linear regression, and logistic regression. This course (or equivalent knowledge) is a prerequisite to many of the courses in the statistical analysis curriculum.
Learn how to
- generate descriptive statistics and explore data with graphs
- perform analysis of variance and apply multiple comparison techniques
- perform linear regression and assess the assumptions
- use regression model selection techniques to aid in the choice of predictor variables in multiple regression
- use diagnostic statistics to assess statistical assumptions and identify potential outliers in multiple regression
- use chi-square statistics to detect associations among categorical variables
- fit a multiple logistic regression model.
Who should attend
Statisticians, researchers, and business analysts who use SAS programming to generate analyses using either continuous or categorical response (dependent) variables
Before attending this course, you should
- have completed an undergraduate course in statistics covering p-values, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, and regression.
- be able to execute SAS programs and create SAS data sets. You can gain this experience by completing the SAS Programming 1: Essentials course.
This course addresses Base SAS, SAS/STAT software.
This course also addresses Base SAS software and touches on SAS/GRAPH software. You benefit from this course even if SAS/GRAPH software is not installed at your location.
