Graduate Level Categorical Data Analysis Course
This PowerPoint presentation offers a comprehensive guide to teaching a first-semester course in Categorical Data Analysis at the graduate level. Covering key sections from Alan Agresti's textbook, the presentation includes real-data examples, software guidance, and solutions to exercises. The instructor shares personal insights to make statistics palpable, with SAS as the primary tool for computations. Additional resources and references enhance the learning experience.

Categorical Data Analysis Categorical Data Analysis INTRODUCTION Dear instructor of graduate level Categorical Data Analysis, This powerpoint (ppt) presentation was created by me in order to teach a first-semester course in Categorical Data Analysis (CDA) based on Alan Agresti s textbook, Categorical Data Analysis, Third Edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2013 (ISBN: 978-0-470-46363-5, hardback). This ppt presentation covers most of the sections of chapters 1 6, 9, and 10. There is also a separate chapter , Ch. M (Multigraph), independent of Agresti s textbook which covers the multigraph representation of hierarchical loglinear models. Finally, Ch. S (Statistical Software) briefly describes the use of SAS, SPSS, and R in analyzing categorical data. There is some material in Agresti s book which I have left out of my ppt slides, and there is some material that I have included in the slides that does not appear in Agresti s book. Of course, one may edit the ppt slides to suit one s own preferences for the course.
INTRODUCTION, continued What has worked well in my classes is to provide the student with the ppt slides electronically ahead of the lecture. Those who wish can print the slides before the lecture so that they can make notes on the paper copy during the lecture. One can print up to 8 slides on one side of a sheet of paper. Alternatively, students can follow the slides on their computer during lecture. For some of the real-data examples I have provided personal stories about my experience with the given data or example. Students have found this very interesting. I think it helps to give them the sense that statistics is real or palpable in real world applications. SAS is the primary statistical software that is presented and used throughout the ppts to carry out computations. An introduction to SAS is given in chapter 2. Solutions to the chapter SUMMARY EXERCISES are provided in a WORD document.
There is a great deal of information about the book at: www.stat.ufl.edu/~aa/cda/cda.html At this website one can find, in addition to this ppt presentation, discussion of software, solutions to selected exercises, SAS code, etc. I hope that you will find this ppt presentation useful. I welcome feedback. Best wishes for a high probability of success. H. J.

Most of the references given in these ppt slides can be found in the References list at the back of Agresti s book. When a reference is given in these slides that is not contained in Agresti s reference list, the full citation will be provided at the location of the reference. The references for chapter M (Multigraph) are given at the end of chapter M. Now, let s begin our journey. 4
