According to the course description, "This lecture gives an introduction to the potentials of using multivariate statistical analysis in social science research. The aim is to provide the basic skills needed to read, interpret and evaluate results presented in research articles based on statistical methods. Furthermore it discusses some methodological (and design) challenges in this type of research such as the relation between theory and data, issues of correlation and causation, measurement validity, and data availability and reliability."
The lecture was presented via PowerPoint which will hopefully be posted on GUL and was a close analysis of:
