 Aims
The objectives are primarily to allow the students: 1. to include/understand the statistics most frequently met in other courses, written or verbal communications or at the time of scientific contacts; 2. to apply the statistical techniques to their own research. Accordingly, the course is centered on the training of the statistical methods most usual whose mathematical bases are reduced to essence and often replaced by intuitive reasoning or conclusive examples. It is necessary to underline the significant role of the meetings of exercises in the achievement of these objectives.
Main themes
This course includes/understands a lecturing in three parts as well as exercises. 1. Descriptive statistics with one and two dimensions: tabeaux (with one or two entries, of association), graphs, parameters (central tendency, dispersion, dissymmetry, flatness, linear correlation, regressions and curvilinéaire). 2. Statistical inference: population and sample, probabilities, random variables, theoretical distributions, confidence intervals (average, variance, proportion), tests of assumptions referring to the averages (T of student, analyze variance, analyze covariance, comparisons individual), with the proportions (chi square, phi, C of contingency), with the corrélations/régressions (significance, comparison, linearity), with the goodness of fit tests (chi square, KS), some nonparametric tests (comparison of independent and dependent groups). 3. Application of the statistics to the method of the aptitude tests: classification of the tests, qualities of the tests, measures validity and fidelity. 4. Exercises as their solution are proposed with groups of +/- 30 students.
