General context

This training builds further on the Basic statistics in R training, showing you how to do statistical analyses in R. Where the Basic statistics in R training is an introduction to the use of R and RStudio and stops at very basic analyses (t-tests and non-parametric equivalents), this training gives you a full overview of statistical analyses in R including regression, ANOVA... Emphasis will be placed on practical applications. To this end, theory will be complemented with hands-on exercises in R, a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. Topics include distributions, plots, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing...

Objectives

After this training you will be able to use R for basic statistical analyses.

Required skills

This training is intended for people who already have a basic knowledge of R: data types, basic graphics... Participants who have never worked with R or RStudio should first follow the course Basic statistics in R. If you don't have sufficient statistical background you are strongly encouraged to attend the Basic statistics theory training.
