This workshop introduces students and applied researchers to R Studio as a data analysis and visualization platform. Topics covered include installing packages and loading libraries; reading in external datasets into the R Studio environment; basic data wrangling and manipulation; calculating summary statistics; visualizing data, and implementing regression analysis. All are welcome, but the workshop would be especially beneficial to social scientists who are already familiar with other data analysis platforms (such as SPSS or Stata), and are interested in adding R Studio to their research toolkit. Participants should download R and R Studio before the start of the workshop. Please consult the following for assistance with downloading R and R Studio (https://rstudio-education.github.io/hopr/starting.html). If you are having trouble installing R and R Studio, please contact CRDDS.
