This workshop will teach participants how to make sense of their linear regression output, with an emphasis on the meaning of the regression parameters.

The workshop is intended for participants who have at least one semester of statistics and some previous experience with linear regression. It is appropriate for faculty, research staff, graduate students, and advanced undergraduate students. This is a review and is not a substitute for a regression course.

Topics:

Continuous predictor variables

Categorical and Dummy Predictor Variables

Interaction and Polynomial Terms

Standardized and Unstandardized Coefficients
