Understanding variables as the foundation in research

Trainer: Dr. Chittaranjan Andrade Category: First Contact Session Level: Basic

To conduct or even understand research, a sound knowledge of the classification and other details of variables is a must. For example, if you collect the data of a continuous variable in a categorized manner, the statistical power is lessened and, in the analysis phase, you will not be able to revert to the exact values. In this session, in his usual lucid fashion, Dr Andrade will unravel the concept of variables, ensuring participants grasp their critical role in research design and analysis.
