Learning outcomes

The course introduces students to the statistical program R. Students completing the course are able to import data of various formats into the R environment, perform basic and advanced statistical procedures and are able to program scripts in the R language for processing large and complicated datasets. The R programming language is a standard in statistics and contemporary psychometry. The course is strongly recommended for students who want to enroll in a doctoral program or have research ambitions outside the academic world. R i R Studio are free to download.
Students will learn to write scripts in the R language for obtaining data from various sources, their cleaning and preparation, various statistical calculations up to the creation of graphical, tabular or other outputs.
