Analysing your data with R – tips and tricks when nothing is normal

Dr. Doreen Gabriel, JKI – Institute for Crop and Soil Science
Content of the seminar
In this short course I will give you an overview of the kind of data we usually analyse in the JKI. I will talk about aspects you need to know when designing your experiment. Then I will cover ANOVA and regression analysis and I will introduce some issues that are related to this statistical analysis. You will learn more about the assumption of normality and what heteroscedasticity is and why we often do not find it in our data. You will also learn about other probability distributions, such as Poisson and negative binomial, and how to use them to analyse your data within the framework of generalised linear modelling.
Please bring your laptop with R and R Studio installed.
