STATA
STATA is statistical software that is excellent for work with cross-sectional data, time series, panel data and survey data analysis. Using STATA’s data-management features allows you to combine and reshape datasets, manage variables, and collect statistics across groups or replicates. STATA also has advanced tools for managing specialized data such as survival/duration data, time-series data, panel/longitudinal data, categorical data, multiple-imputation data, and survey data.
Workshops
CTRL offers a variety of workshops each semester to train members of the AU community in the software that it supports. At this time we are offering on-demand, recorded software workshops due to AU’s current remote work policy. Examples of workshops we have offered in the past can be seen below.
On-demand videos and materials
Video 1: How to import data into AU Virtual Applications and Desktop, open files in Stata, run descriptive statistics, code/recode variables.
Video 2: How to create visuals, run an independent samples t-test, correlation, simple OLS regression, multiple OLS regression, and export into word and move the files to the AU OneDrive.
