Description
In this course, you will :
- helps you to expand your SAS knowledge by demonstrating how to use the platform to perform a regression analysis on a health survey data centre.
- demonstrates how to perform regression analyses and present your model's results in tables She demonstrates how to create and present a linear regression model using PROC GLM as part of a hypothesis-driven analysis, as well as how to create a logistic regression model using PROC GENMOD and PROC LOGISTIC, and how to present and interpret your linear and logistic regression models.
- goes over regression issues and gives a few helpful hints
