Learning R

Abstract

In this workshop, I will cover an introduction to R for the psychological researcher with little to no programming experience. The content will mostly consist of what you might find in an introductory statistics class.

I’ll first discuss some benefits of using R, how to get started in R, and provide an introduction to data manipulation and writing scripts. The workshop will also cover:

• Descriptive statistics
• Data visualization
• Analysis of contingency tables
• t-tests
• ANOVAs
• Regression

I’ll end with a discussion of resources to continue learning R.
