商品描述

This book covers the main models within the GLM (i.e., logistic, Poisson, negative binomial, ordinal, and multinomial). For each model, estimations, interpretations, model fit, diagnostics, and how to convey results graphically are provided. There is a focus on graphic displays of results as these are a core strength of using R for statistical analysis. Many in the social sciences are transitioning away from using Stata, SPSS and SAS, to using R, and this book uses statistical models which are relevant to the social sciences. Social Science Applications of Regression for Categorical Outcomes Using R will be useful for graduate students in the social sciences who are looking to expand their statistical knowledge, and for Quantitative social scientists due to it's ability to act as a practitioners guide.

Key Features:

  • Applied- in the sense that we will provide code that others can easily adapt
  • Flexible- R is basically just a fancy calculator. Our programs will enable users to derive quantities that they can use in their work
  • Timely- many in the social sciences are currently transitioning to R or are learning it now. Our book will be a useful resource
  • Versatile- we will write functions into an R package that can be applied to all of the regression models we will cover in the book
  • Aesthetically pleasing- one advantage of R relative to other software packages is that graphs are fully customizable. We will leverage this feature to yield high-end graphical displays of results
  • Affordability- R is free. R packages are free. There is no need to purchase site licenses or updates.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書涵蓋了GLM(即,logistic、Poisson、negative binomial、ordinal和multinomial)中的主要模型。對於每個模型,提供了估計、解釋、模型適配度、診斷以及如何以圖形方式呈現結果的方法。本書特別關注結果的圖形展示,因為這是使用R進行統計分析的核心優勢。許多社會科學領域的人正在從使用Stata、SPSS和SAS轉向使用R,而本書使用的統計模型與社會科學相關。

《Social Science Applications of Regression for Categorical Outcomes Using R》對於希望擴展統計知識的社會科學研究生以及量化社會科學家來說,將是一本實用的資源,因為它能夠充當實踐指南。

主要特點:
- 應用性:我們將提供其他人可以輕鬆適應的程式碼。
- 靈活性:R基本上只是一個高級計算器。我們的程式將使用者能夠推導出他們在工作中可以使用的數量。
- 及時性:許多社會科學領域的人目前正在轉向使用R或正在學習它。我們的書將是一個有用的資源。
- 多功能性:我們將編寫一個R套件中的函數,可以應用於本書中涵蓋的所有回歸模型。
- 美觀:相對於其他軟體包,R的一個優勢是圖形是完全可自定義的。我們將利用這個功能來產生高端的圖形展示結果。
- 經濟實惠:R是免費的。R套件也是免費的。無需購買網站許可證或更新。
