Statistical ideas and the statistical process are critical to understanding statistics and research. This course will emphasize in-depth understanding and interpretation of concepts through applications rather than breadth of procedural statistical methods. Topics include the statistical research process, data exploration, chance and uncertainty, making judgements from data under uncertainty using statistics, how to critique studies that use statistics, and interpretation of statistics.
