課程概述

This course is designed for graduate students to learn multivariate statistical techniques frequently utilized in social sciences, particularly in health behavioral research. Specific techniques covered in this course are multiple linear regression, logistic repression, path model, multilevel regression for both cross-sectional and longitudinal design, power calculation, exploratory factor analysis and some latent variable modeling. 

課程目標
Upon completion of this course, students will be prepared to:
1. Apply the most appropriate multivariate statistical approach analyze data obtained from public health research.
2. Obtain hand-on experience conducting analyses using SAS program.
3. Develop efficient SAS programming skills.
4. Adopt the correct SAS procedures for the selected statistical approach.
5. Identify correctly the types and metrics of variable to be included in the statistical models.
6. Conduct independently statistical analyses.
7. Perform significance tests to evaluate research hypotheses.
8. Adequately present and interpret the statistical analytical results.
