Regression to the mean and how to deal with it (Seminar 9 Aug)

Facilities

2018 - August

Despite being “transparent to the point of being obvious”, the phenomenon of regression to the mean – first recognised in the 1800s – is still catching out researchers. We’ll look at what regression to the mean is, how to identify it, how you can reduce it at the design stage and statistical methods you can use to account for it at the analysis stage of your pre-post experiment.

 
The talk will be about 30 minutes long and will be followed by (free!) afternoon tea and time for discussion.  Please register by Thursday, 9th August, 10.00 am, so we can cater properly for afternoon tea!
