LING 10 Statistics for Linguistics

This course is designed to introduce you to the exploration of linguistic data using quantitative methods. It will enable you to apply statistical methods to explore linguistic patterns in your data, formulate hypotheses about linguistic research, and present your findings in linguistic fora. We will study descriptive statistics (e.g. mean, media, mode, variance, standard deviation), inferential statistics (e.g. t-student, ANOVA, chi-square, linear regression) and the basics of Bayesian statistics (e.g. probability distributions, population comparisons). Because of the large overlap in material covered, no student may receive credit for more than one of the courses ECON 10, ENVS 10, GOVT 10, LING 10, MATH 10, PSYC 10, QSS 15, or SOCY 10.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
