Video resources to study correlation analysis: for Housing Studies students

The main theme is correlation analysis

1. On covariance [video]; demonstration of Excel

a. basic concept of correlation video: understanding correlation.

b. note the difference with causal relations. [also study the video on causal relationships]

c. a video: types of variables (detailed).

d. on mediators and moderators & control variables in correlation modelling. (further discussion of the mediator under the topic of intervening variables)./ a brief note on the moderating variable.  Also study a video on confounding variables. Also a blog note on the terms used in correlation analysis: about variables.

e. Correlation analysis: its limitations.

f. How to include variables into the multiple regression formula?

1.1 scatter diagram

*** basic tutorial video on scatterplot and linear correlation

(also refer to: https://www.excel-easy.com/examples/trendline.html), and coefficient of determination. A related video on the coefficient of determination/ correlation; a video on coefficient of determination and another one on the coefficient of correlation (steps).

*** on Simpson's Paradox [video]; a note on Simpson's paradox.

1.2 Data->data analysis -> regression

2. Videos: 

2.1 * the normal distribution./ * understanding the central limit theorem./ standardized normal distribution./ standard error briefing 1/ standard error : briefing 2.

2.2 on P-value and significance test/ Z-tests (also see p-value and alpha).

Also see slides on P-value.

2.3 * video: one tailed and two tailed tests, and critical values.
