| PSYCH 6822 – Mediation and Moderation |
| PSYCH 7821 – Fundamentals of Factor Analysis:
“This course covers PCA, EFA, and CFA. You learn how the do the math for the underlying variance structures. Complements information learned in SEM.” |
| PSYCH 7821 – Covariance Structure Modeling |
| PSYCH 7823 – Longitudinal Data Analysis (with Pek):
“ A good overview of multi-level modeling and (somewhat) longitudinal data analysis” “I love Dr. Pek. I’ve taken two classes with her now and would recommend her for stats.” |
| ESQREM 7651 – Regression Analysis:
“This is a great course to build on previous regression knowledge from stats 1/2. If you feel like you don’t have a great grasp on regression this course is super helpful!” |
| ESQREM 8659 – MLM (with Kim):
“This was a great course to expand regression knowledge and understand how to run fixed and random effects.” |
| ESQREM 8659 – Stuctural Equation Modeling (with Kim):
“A popular method for communication research (we talk about SEM in theory construction).” |
| POLITSC 7552 – Quantitative Data Analysis II (with Cranmer):
“This course covers a full range of regression models with different types of outcome variables, inference, and prediction. The application is in R. Lectures are recorded in advance, so this course is ideal for people who are self-motivated and have confidence in learning on their own.” |
| POLITSC 7553 – Quantitative Data Analysis III (with Minozzi):
“This course covers experiments and statistical control to achieve causal inference as well as how machine learning can be used in this context. If you are interested in making claims in the counterfactual framework, this course serves as a foundation.” |
| POLITSC 7555 – Causal Mechanisms (with Braumoeller):
“This course covers a range of dynamic models that uncover the causal mechanisms of human behavior. Models include but are not limited to network models, system theory, feedback models, and spatial models. Uses R and Netlogo (ABM software).” |
| POLITSC 7702 – Survey and Questionnaire Design |
| GEOG 5229 – Special Topics in GIS (with Le)
“A good overview of geospatial methods in R” STAT 5760 – Statistical Consulting Support: “Enroll to receive up to 17 hours of statistical help from a graduate student consultant during the semester. Run by the Statistical Consulting Service, they are experts in study design and data analysis. They can provide assistance whether you are in the planning stages of your research project or if you need help with modeling data with complex structures or missing entries. Expertise is in R, but can provide support for other software packages as well.” |
