Analysis of Binary and Categorical Data
**********************************************************
Dates: 22-23 May 2008. Duration: 2 days. Price: 535 GBP.
Many investigations often have data where there are only two, or a few,
possible categories of response - for example a product may be accepted or
rejected after inspection, a crop may or may not become infested with pests,
a patient's symptoms can be classified as none, mild, moderate or severe.
This course will explain statistical techniques for studying associations
between outcomes like those mentioned, and possible explanatory factors. The
emphasis will be on practical application and interpretation rather than
theory. A large component of the course will be PC-based practical work,
where participants may choose to use MINITAB, R, SAS, SPSS or Stata.
