Analysis of surveydata, 7.5 credits

With today's easy access to easy-to-use software, the use of survey data in complex analyses has become commonplace. The course provides skills that are often needed in order to exploit data fully, both in public debate and in research in the social and behavioural sciences.

In this course you will learn how to use data collected in sample surveys for other purposes than purely descriptive ones. You will also learn both simple and complex sample designs, for example designs with varying selection probabilities and the usual statistical analyses, such as linear and logistic regression and multi level models. The course gives you knowledge about how auxiliary information on the frame can be used in the analysis. The course also addresses the concepts of inference population and survey population are explained.

Special eligibility requirements: 90 ECTS credits in Statistics or equivalent and Swedish upper secondary school course English B or equivalent.
