TRANSCEND Statistical Resources

The Research Design, Compliance and Data Management Core (RDCDC) offers a variety of statistical resources from both our core and other biostatistical cores. 

Recent Trainings:

Stats to Data: Matching Statistical Tests to Datasets

Having trouble figuring out what statistical test to use for your dataset? Look no further. In this training module, Dr. Williamson walks through four different methods of matching your data to a statistical test: 1) an exhaustive flow chart, 2) an quick-and-easy flowchart, 3) a figure gallery, and 4) a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) flowchart. Along the way, he covers the general types of tests, data types, and other relevant information on finding the right test for your data.

Fantastic Graph Types and How To Make Them

This training module covers how to make lesser-known but equally fascinating graphs in R. The graphs covered are Violin plots, Dumbbell plots, Tree Maps, Waffle plots, Dendrograms, Heatmaps, Kaplan-Meier Curves, Time Series, Donut plots, and Funnel Plots. Bonus graphs include spiffing up standard plots: Stacked Barplots, Dot+Boxplots, and Multilevel Regression Plots.
