Here’s what we want to accomplish in this class:

  1. Briefly discuss scatterplots (geom_point()). Slides.
  2. Discuss the magnitude of a correlation coefficient [pdf].
  3. Discuss the intuition and calculation of the correlation coefficient \(r\), both by hand in with R. A one SD increase in X, leads to an \(r\) SD increase in Y.
  4. Slides on regression.
  5. Live regression coding
