Описание: The twenty-first century has seen a breathtaking expansion of statistical methodology, both in scope and in influence. 'Big data', 'data science', and 'machine learning' have become familiar terms in the news, as statistical methods are brought to bear upon the enormous data sets of modern science and commerce. How did we get here? And where are we going? This book takes us on an exhilarating journey through the revolution in data analysis following the introduction of electronic computation in the 1950s. Beginning with classical inferential theories - Bayesian, frequentist, Fisherian - individual chapters take up a series of influential topics: survival analysis, logistic regression, empirical Bayes, the jackknife and bootstrap, random forests, neural networks, Markov chain Monte Carlo, inference after model selection, and dozens more. The distinctly modern approach integrates methodology and algorithms with statistical inference. The book ends with speculation on the future direction of statistics and data science.

Описание: Examining the major approaches to hypothesis testing and model selection, this book blends statistical theory with recommendations for practice, illustrated with real-world social science examples. It systematically compares classical (frequentist) and Bayesian approaches, showing how they are applied, exploring ways to reconcile the differences between them, and evaluating key controversies and criticisms. The book also addresses the role of hypothesis testing in the evaluation of theories, the relationship between hypothesis tests and confidence intervals, and the role of prior knowledge in Bayesian estimation and Bayesian hypothesis testing. Two easily calculated alternatives to standard hypothesis tests are discussed in depth: the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC). The companion website ([ital]www.guilford.com/weakliem-materials[/ital]) supplies data and syntax files for the book`s examples.

Описание: This book is a collection of reflective, non-traditional narratives on key elements of academic work: data analysis, writing practices, engagement with the field, iterations of thinking-writing-thinking. Across the collection, the authors discuss how elements of academic work and life usually edited out of traditional research papers can elicit important analytical insights. It is a collection of personal, theorised essays about the unplanned, accidental and even obstructive events that occur in research life and the substantial potential for analytical insights herein. Coined 'detours'--the routes not planed, the clutter made or encountered when carrying out research, and the results thereof.
The authors aim to introduce 'writing-sharing-reading-writing' as a way to expand the playground of research and inspire a research culture in which 'accountable' research methodologies involve adventurousness and an element of uncertainty. Written by scholars from a range of different fields, positions, and countries, this ground breaking book could be of interest to academics and professionals from all areas of research.

Описание:

Offering pragmatic guidance for planning and conducting a meta-analytic review, this book is written in an engaging, nontechnical style that makes it ideal for graduate course use or self-study. The author shows how to identify questions that can be answered using meta-analysis, retrieve both published and unpublished studies, create a coding manual, use traditional and unique effect size indices, and write a meta-analytic review. An ongoing example illustrates meta-analytic techniques. In addition to the fundamentals, the book discusses more advanced topics, such as artifact correction, random- and mixed-effects models, structural equation representations, and multivariate procedures. User-friendly features include annotated equations; discussions of alternative approaches; and "Practical Matters" sections that give advice on topics not often discussed in other books, such as linking meta-analytic results with theory and the utility of meta-analysis software programs.

Описание: Ephasizing conceptual understanding over mathematics, this user-friendly text introduces linear regression analysis to students and researchers across the social, behavioral, consumer, and health sciences. Coverage includes model construction and estimation, quantification and measurement of multivariate and partial associations, statistical control, group comparisons, moderation analysis, mediation and path analysis, and regression diagnostics, among other important topics. Engaging worked-through examples demonstrate each technique, accompanied by helpful advice and cautions. The use of SPSS, SAS, and STATA is emphasized, with an appendix on regression analysis using R. The companion website (www.afhayes.com) provides datasets for the book`s examples as well as the RLM macro for SPSS and SAS. Pedagogical Features: *Chapters include SPSS, SAS, or STATA code pertinent to the analyses described, with each distinctively formatted for easy identification. *An appendix documents the RLM macro, which facilitates computations for estimating and probing interactions, dominance analysis, heteroscedasticity-consistent standard errors, and linear spline regression, among other analyses. *Students are guided to practice what they learn in each chapter using datasets provided online. *Addresses topics not usually covered, such as ways to measure a variable`s importance, coding systems for representing categorical variables, causation, and myths about testing interaction.

Описание: ITAMOrg(R) IT Hardware Asset Management Certifications is suitable for individuals wanting to demonstrate they have achieved sufficient understanding of how to apply and tailor the Hardware Asset Management practices. Hardware Asset Management (HAM) is important for every organization. Management and control of hardware influences the risk on most asset types such as Software, Cloud & Services and People and Information assets. E.g., if you are not in control of what hardware is in use it is not possible for you to control your software which will result in software license in-compliance and other risks.The Hardware Asset Management Specialist Certification brings participants IT Service Management best practices together with Hardware Asset Management best practices. This will help an organization to implement Hardware Asset Management lifecycle processes and showing how IT Service Management can support HAM lifecycles to be in control and support the other Asset types.The purpose of the ITAMOrg Hardware Asset Management Specialist (HAMS) course and certification is to provide knowledge on best practices and use of Hardware Asset Management (HAM) in the challenges that Hardware Asset Managers face on a daily basis. This certification is based on a practical approach to strengthen the participants understanding of how ISO 55000 and IT Service Management best practice relates to everyday use of HAM, Hardware standards, Hardware lifecycle control, control of retirement and disposal and organizational issues that saturates many businesses in today`s digital world.This Courseware is suited for the ITAMOrg(R) 2020 HAM exam. There is also a sample exam added of the ITAMOrg(R) 2020 Hardware Asset Management in case the participant prefers to refresh its knowledge. The Exam is delivered in English.
