This presentation is a part of a series of lessons on the Analysis of Categorical Data. This lecture covers the following: Pearson's residuals and rules for partitioning an I x J contingency tables as ways to determine association between variables.
The objective of this course is to learn and apply statistical methods for the analysis of data that have been observed over time. Our challenge in this course is to account for the correlation between measurements that are close in time. Perfect for students and teachers wanting to learn/acquire materials for this topic.

When two variables are related, it is possible to predict a person's score on one variable from their score on the second variable with better than chance accuracy. This section describes how these predictions are made and what can be learned about the relationship between the variables by developing a prediction equation.
The program DistCalc calculates probabilities and critical values for the most important distributions. The purpose of this program is to show the concept of critical values and the replacement of printed distribution tables. The Distribution Calculator offers calculations for the normal distribution, the t distribution, the chi-square distribution, and the F distribution.
