Course Aims | ||||||||
The course aims to acquaint research students with
statistical models and methods utilized for the analysis of longitudinal data.
Longitudinal data pertains to information gathered repeatedly from individuals,
be it humans, animals, plants, or participants, over time or different locations.
The course will primarily emphasize the practical application of statistical
models, specifically linear mixed-effects (LME) models, nonlinear mixed-effects
(NLME) models, and generalized linear mixed-effects (GLME) models. Through
hands-on experience with statistical software, students will gain the ability
to directly employ these models. Upon completion of the course, students will
possess the skills to proficiently analyze longitudinal data and effectively
interpret the resulting analyses. | ||||||||
