This seminar’s objective is to provide an introduction into data analysis using the software Stata. Stata is a powerful and yet easy-to-use statistical package. During the seminar you will be introduced into working with Stata as well as discussing a variety of different analytical techniques. The seminar consists of five sessions. During the sessions we will discuss different analytical techniques and how to perform them in the Stata environment. Topics of these sessions are e.g. data management, working with Do-Files, data manipulation, linear regression analysis and how to include and interpret different kinds of explanatory variables to the models. Depending on the previous knowledge of the participants, we might be able to cover additional topics. As a preparation, it is highly recommended to work through the Chapter 1 to Chapter 3 of the book “Data Analysis Using Stata” by Ulrich Kohler and Frauke Kreuter. close
