Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
At the end of this course, students will be able to :
- Understand basic principles of statistical hypothesis tests
- Understand basic tools used to assess normality of a distribution
- Compare central tendencies of two or more than two groups
- Compare proportions, use statistical tests of significance and compute odds ratios and related tools
- Analyze the relationship between quantitative variables : tests for linear correlation, linear regression analysis
- Understand basic principles of diagnostic tools used in medicine, and principles of Bayesian reasoning
Content of UE
<u>Basics of statistical hypothesis test</u> : null and alternative hypothesis; unilateral and bilateral tests; power of a test : concept and uses in medicine; number of subjects to include in a trial : basics and practical applications
<u>Tests assessing the normality of a distribution</u> : Shapiro-Wilk and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests; uses and practical examples; graphical methods including QQ plots; data transformations
<u>Comparisons of two means</u> : uses in medicine; Z-test; Student t test; Fisher's test for comparison of two variances; Welch's test; Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon tests; tests in case of paired samples : paired t-test and Wilcoxon paired test
<u>Comparisons of two proportions</u> : uses in medicine ; relative risk and odds ratio; confidence interval of an odds ratio; contingency tables; chi2 tests and related tests (Yates correction, Mc Nemar); Fisher's exact test
<u>Comparisons of more than two sample means</u> : uses in medicine; one-way ANOVA : basics, ANOVA table; homoscedasticity, interpretation of the results of an ANOVA test; non parametric approaches (Kruskal-Wallis and Friedman)
<u>Linear correlation in medicine</u> : how to compute r and its confidence interval (Fisher's transformations); tests on r; test on the slope of the linear regression
