Probability and Fundamentals of Inferential Statistics

Kursleitung: Prof. Dr. Rolf Steyer

Sommersemester 2016, Kurs, Sprache: Englisch, Thema: Introduction to statistics for psychologists

This lecture is a first course in probability and inferential statistics. In the first part fundamental concepts of probability theory and their applications in empirical sciences are treated. The second part deals with the basic ideas of statistical inference.
