Professor Matthew Loveless on your responsibilities as a researcher

Matthew Loveless’ short video guide to political analysis. These bite-sized, intuitive guides are perfect for students looking to get started on learning data and statistics. He uses golf to explain non-liner models, compares measuring distances in space and finding reference categories for dummy variables and more. As he says, statistics is like catching a bobcat by the tail-you better know what you’re doing!
The videos showcase the chapters themes from his book, ‘Political Analysis: A Guide to Data and Statistics’. You can order a copy here: uk.sagepub.com/en-gb/eur/poli...
