This month's MHRI-GHUCCTS Monthly Statistical Seminar Series will be held Friday, September from 12 PM - 1 PM. This series features Dr. Paul Kolm, Associate Director in the Center for Biostatistics, Informatics, & Data Science (CBIDS) at MedStar Health Research Institute.
This month's seminar will discuss statistical analyses for continuous outcomes where the relationship between the outcome two (or more) variables is linear. In these analyses, the outcome is assumed to be normally distributed. We will look at testing the assumptions of normality and linearity and what to do if assumptions are violated. We will also look at linear methods to assess non-linear relationships.
