  • PM 464: Intro To Regression Analysis

    3.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    The course will focus on becoming familiar with the theory of ordinary least squares regression analysis and its assumptions as well as the necessary alterations required to conduct valid analysis when those assumptions are not met. To the extent possible, examples will be taken from the health services research literature

  • PM 465: Advanced Multivariate Analysis

    3.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    The first part of this course introduces general estimation frameworks including least squares (specifically, least squares as applied to multivariate models, and nonlinear least squares), maximum likelihood, generalized method of moments, and some corresponding variants (e.g., quasi-likelihood, Monte Carlo methods, and instrumental variables). The second part of the course focuses on the application of the preceding estimation methods to the development and analysis of qualitative and limited dependent variable models (e.g., logit, probit, multinomial/conditional/nested logit, multinomial probit, mixed logit and probit, and censored and truncated data), duration models (e.g. Kaplan-Meier product limit estimator, Cox's proportional hazard model, and full parametric specifications), and multivariate models (e.g., multivariate regression, sample selection models, and simultaneous equation models).

  • PM 472: Measuremnt&Evaluatn Of Resch

    3.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    The purpose of this course is to provide the student with a comprehensive background in the development and testing of self-report instruments for epidemiologic research purposes. A review of the principles of survey development will begin the course, however, it will rapidly move to a more hands-on approach as students will learn how to run and interpret classical test theory analyses, factor analyses, responsiveness to change analyses and Item Response Theory (IRT) analyses of item pool data. The students will learn how to use and integrate these statistical approaches to develop self-report instruments with high levels of validity and low levels of measurement error.
