GS010014 Biomedical Statistics

White, R. Allen. Four semester hours. Summer annually. Prerequisite: none.

Course material will include the basic statistics usually found in introductory courses (t-tests, chi-square, contingency tables) but also will include a balanced emphasis on nonparametric methods, the analysis of variance and covariance through multi-way and hierarchical designs, and regression analysis from simple linear regression analysis through nonlinear methods. The use of personal computers and commercially available programs in the statistical analysis is emphasized in a computer laboratory. Presentation methods, graphics, and statistical word processing are also emphasized. Fulfills GSBS quantitative area breadth requirement.
