Legend for Tags used in Stat Computing Bookmarks and Bookmarks by Topic

Each bookmark has one or more "tags" associated with it. These "tags" allow you to focus on bookmarks that are of interest to you. The Stat Computing Bookmarks page and Bookmarks by Topic Pages have three broad categories of tags, described below.

• StatPackages - The particular statistics package(s) a bookmarked page refers to (if any). For example, SAS, Stata, SPSS etc...
• StatTopics - The topic(s) referred to by the bookmarked page. For example, Regression, ANOVA, SurveyAnalysis.
• TypeOfPage - The type of page that is bookmarked. For example, CourseNotes, FAQ, OnlineBook.

Here are further explanations of the tags we use

• StatPackages - Not much more to say here, it is the name of the statistics package.
• StatTopics
  • ANOVA - Analysis of Variance as well as Analysis of Covariance and related topics.
  • Basics - Basic issues in statistics and data management
  • CategoricalAndOrdinalOutcomes - Pages describing how to handle nominal outcomes
  • ConfirmatoryFactorAnalysis - Confirmatory Factor Analysis, excludes exploratory factor analysis (see FactorAnalysis)
  • CountOutcomes - Outcomes that are count variables.
  • DataInputOutput - Issues involving input of data into a stat package, or outputting data from a stat package.
  • DataFilesAndDocumentation - Pages describing where to find data files, especially commonly used public use data files, and documentation associated with the files.
  • DataManagement - Pages discussing how to prepare and manage your data before analysis.
  • FactorAnalysis - Exploratory factor analysis (not confirmatory factor analysis)
  • Graphics - Graphical display of data.
  • IRT - Item Response Theory
  • LatentClassAnalysis - Latent Class Analysis
  • LatentGrowth - Latent Growth Models (e.g. via structural equation modelling)
  • LatentVariables - A broad catch all category of models that involve latent variables.
  • Logistic - All forms of logistic regression, including binary logistic, ordinal logistic, multinomial logistic, and so forth.
  • LogisticBinary - Binary logistic regression

  • Multivariate - A broad category including the most general multivariate techniques including MANOVA, Factor Analysis, etc..
  • Regression - OLS Regression and related techniques
  • ScaleDevelopment - Issues concerning the development of scales (but not IRT), e.g. item development, reliability analysis, validity
