This lecture provides an overview of 161.251.
This course is all about using regression models.
These models seek to describe the variation of one variable in
terms of one or more others, so far as this is possible.
These models are a vital tool in the application of
statistics.
Prescription
(as updated for the 2022 offering)
Common data analysis and regression techniques for application in
science, business and social science. Topics include simple and multiple
regression; linear models with categorical explanatory variables; model
diagnostics; inference for linear models; polynomial regression; models
for time dependence; methods for variable selection; non-linear and
weighted regression.
Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete this course should be able to:
- Explore and describe characteristics of quantitative and categorical
data and interrelationships among variables.
- Develop appropriate regression models for data analysis, make
inferences about the model parameters, and interpret these in
context.
- Critically assess whether a regression model adequately describes
how one or more explanatory variables affect a response variable, and
propose alternative approaches.
- Create and explain analysis of variance tables, and use them to test
hypotheses about model parameters.
- Compare regression models and select a subset of explanatory
variables that explain variation in a response.
- Use suitable statistical software to explore data and apply
regression models.
N.B. For this course the “suitable statistical software” is R. Even
if you have used R before, you may wish to review some introductory
material to refresh yourself. If you have not used R before, then there
is some extra work to do, but we won’t use this software in the first
three lectures so there is still time to allow you a decent chance to
catch up. Look for links on Stream, including how to get R
and RStudio set up for this semester.
Some of the new Stuff You’ll Learn
Polynomial Regression
Model Diagnostic Plots
Regression for Grouped Data
Computer Practicals
In practice, statistical methods are implemented on computers.
Doing statistical analyses helps you to understand underlying
theory.
Computer practicals are therefore an essential element of
161.251.
Practical sessions will be held each week during semester. The more
you put into the practical exercises, the more you will benefit from the
opportunity to interact with staff.
Even if you miss the contact session, you should still work through
the material on your own. You are most welcome to email for help.

Check the Stream site for 161.251 on a regular basis for:
- links to lecture content and recordings
- Announcements and news. These will automatically be emailed to you
so do make sure the correct email address is on your Massey
profile.
- All study material. There is no set text to purchase. links to
practical exercises; these are highly
recommended
- Assignments and other assessment exercises, including the submission
portal
- links to files for download.

Assessment for 161.251
You will use R for all assessment exercises. Each of them is worth
25% towards your final grade.
- Assessments 1&3: These are traditional assignments. You will
write them using R markdown.
- Assessments 2&4: These have a time-constrained component like a
traditional test, but they require preparation like you would do for an
assignment. There may be written questions where you will use output
from work done prior to the test time. The focus is on showing
understanding. You may be asked to deal with practical issues; for these
questions you will demonstrate your ability to augment your analyses
using R / Rmarkdown
The dates for Assessments 1-3 are on Stream; the fourth assessment
date is determined by the Examinations Section and is conducted in the
standard examination period.
We strongly recommend that you make use of R via RStudio to complete
as much work for the course as you can so that you are well versed in
its use for the second and fourth assessment exercises.
R markdown ?
If you have not used R markdown before, then you will need to gain
some skill using it. The course lectures and other material were written
using R markdown so we (indirectly) demonstrate its use. To help get you
increasingly comfortable with R markdown, there are template files for
all practical exercises.
You will soon find that R markdown is a huge time saver, especially
for anyone who isn’t perfect (probably all of us).
Useful reference material
We believe we’ve provided everything you
need within the provided course material. We
do understand that you might want more, or to
see different language used to discuss a particular topic. This is
normal, and it is what many experienced academics do all the time.
Referring to two sources really is a great way to confirm your
understanding.
While we are keen for you to ask questions on Stream, sometimes
people just want to look things up for themselves. Using Google might be
what you prefer, but if you want a head start on looking for help in
good quality references, take a look at the following options.
Linear Models with R by Julian J. Faraway presents
some very nice examples and is a fairly easy read. Even though the
second edition was released in 2014, the R code remains as useful today
as it was at the time of writing. The data used in Faraway’s books are
in the faraway
package.
Introduction to Linear Regression Analysis (now in a
sixth edition) by Montgomery, Peck, and Vining (often referred to as
MPV) is a classic text. Its earlier editions were not aligned to any
software, but the most recent editions are aligned to the two most
widely used software options (R and SAS). There is an R package that
includes a number of the datasets used in the (third edition of the)
text, called MPV
.
R for Data Science by Hadley
Wickham and Garrett Grolemund, is a great resource. It has so much
useful content that it could be used as a textbook for practically every
undergraduate course in statistics and probably a few postgraduate
courses as well.
If you’re wanting to take a deeper look at how and why different
types of graphs are used, and why some are better than others, then read
Fundamentals of Data
Visualisation by Claus Wilke . Warning: this book goes well beyond
what we expect you to think about in this course, but it is easy to
read. It has great examples of using ggplot2 and provides discussions
about how to choose appropriate graphs. Think of it as complementary to
the course, not as recommended reading for the course. It might open
your eyes to a greater range of graphics than you’ve used before.
The Graphics Cookbook by
Winston Chang, has plenty of examples that can help you create
presentation quality graphs of many types using the ggplot2
package. It might prove a slightly better option to consult if you
already know what you are trying to achieve, but can’t recall how to do
it. Everyone needs this sort of reference from time to time.
The R
Markdown Cookbook by Yihui Xie, Christophe Dervieux, and Emily
Riederer, should be one of the first refernces you seek when things
aren’t going right with your R markdown documents. It will help you go
from novice to power R markdown user if that’s what you want. Watch
though that you don’t spend too much time making your R markdown
documents more awesome than the situation deserves.
