SS 306SOCIAL SCIENCE STATISTICS
4-semester credits Lecture: Four 50-minute sessions per week for 15 weeks This course, with breaks is assigned to 4 hours weekly for lectures. Statistics is the collection, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. This course introduces the basics of social statistics - techniques that social scientists use to summarize numeric data obtained from censuses, surveys, and experiments. The topics include frequency distribution, central tendency, variability, probability theory, and estimation. The student will also learn how to test hypotheses for group differences in means (z test, t-test) and the association between two variables (correlation, chi- square test). This course will also allow the student to become more adept at reading and understanding research articles and thinking critically about social issues.
