进阶教程,包括OLS回归问题和对策,如何选择合适的model,以及path analysis techniques
PART I:
In this section, we briefly review the basics of OLS regression. We talk about some of the most common issues (measurement error, missing data, violations of OLS assumptions) encountered in regression analysis.
基础OLS regression
有违OLS regression假设时的问题及对策:multicollinearity(多重共线性)问题、detecting及对策,missing data问题及对策,measurement error,简单的scale construction,outliers(极值)处理,Heteroskedasticity(异方差)问题、detecting及对策,基本的serial correlation(序列自相关)处理
PART II:
This section shows how regression can be used to properly specify a causal model. We begin by introducing "the logic of causal order," which lets us understand the different kinds of causal relationships that might be present between variables. Common model mis-specifications are then addressed (e.g. omitted variables, extraneous variables, variables with nonlinear effects). We discuss how to choose between alternative causal models. Finally, we introduce path analysis as a method for causal modeling.
因果逻辑关系分析
多因素统计分析:suppressor effects(制约效应???),interaction effects(交互作用);specification error;imposing and testing equality constraints in Models
组间比较方法和模型
path analysis(路径分析??)介绍
PART III:
Here, we develop path analysis techniques more fully. We talk about more complicated models that cannot be accurately estimated through conventional OLS regression techniques (e.g. nonrecursive models). We also talk about situations where the nature of the data make OLS regression inappropriate (e.g. dichotomous dependent variables) or less than optimal.

Categorical Data Analysis
categorical data(分类数据?)分析方法和应用,解释有关非连续变量的统计方法
Overview.
This course discusses methods and models for the analysis of categorical dependent variables and their applications in social science research. Researchers are often interested in the determinants of categorical outcomes. For example, such outcomes might be binary (lives/dies), ordinal (very likely/ somewhat likely/ not likely), nominal (taking the bus, car, or train to work) or count (the number of times something has happened, such as the number of articles written). When dependent variables are categorical rather than continuous, conventional OLS regression techniques are not appropriate. This course therefore discusses the wide array of methods that are available for examining categorical outcomes.
