Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to introduce students to some advanced statistical methods applicable in marketing research. The course will cover specific diagnostic methods, formal methods for data checking, explorative methods, analysis of categorical data - contingency tables, tests for independence in contingency tables, cluster analysis and logistic regression. Part of the course will be focused on multivariate statistical methods.
Students will understand the basic principles of advanced statistical methods. Students are able to communicate with the programming environment R.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Combined exam, Test
Credit Requirements: Seminars are mainly oriented toward unsupported individual work with the teacher. Seminars are tightly linked to the content of lectures. The main part of the work in seminars could be described as "problem solving". Themes of seminar tasks correspond with explained topics in lectures. For more details see the summary of the subject. Students work with the programming environment R during the seminars. Students obtain credit on the base of the submission of one seminar work, attendance and passing the test. In some cases individual work could be assigned. There are two tests during the semester. There is only one possible correction (test is composed of two tests)! Examination Requirements: To pass written part of exam you have to solve absolute majority of problems.
