Statistical Analysis: Null-hypothesis Testing with R

Graphic mashup created with Canva

 

ONLINE 

This workshop will focus on developing theoretical and practical skills for null hypothesis testing and probabilities in R.   

The session will begin with a brief overview of statistics, and go on to cover probabilities and hypothesis testing, including:  

  • T-tests, KS-tests and normalised data  

  • Null hypotheses and probabilities  

The workshop will ultimately build on an understanding of basic statistical analysis and show how more complex statistical analyses and simulations can be used in R. The relatively advanced techniques and theory behind all of this are highly applicable to wider concepts and will allow you to apply and build on the core concepts with your own research.  

This is an advanced-level workshop. A basic understanding of R and statistical analyses is assumed. This assumed understanding is at the level covered in the Introduction to Statistical Analysis session. Participation in that introductory session is advised before undertaking this session. The Tidyverse package should be downloaded and installed before the workshop.    

Those who have registered to take part will receive an email with full details and a link to join the session in advance of the start time.  

After taking part in this event, you may decide that you need some further help in applying what you have learnt to your research. If so, you can book a Data Surgery meeting with one of our training fellows.
