I actually was not able to fully install it, but it seems to run fine from the disk mounted image, and when I ran the script in this I was able to do the simulations. I still don't fully understand everything, but am getting a better feel/familiarity with the concepts. Thank you so much for offering this class.

I am just running into some errors running the script for the first assignment and feel it is something I could self-diagnose with other students instead of having to bother you with it. I have some experience with R, but trouble deciphering error messages. Thank you so much for this course.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987850932434001559.post-83661107447933229882016-10-21T07:47:50.523+02:002016-10-21T07:47:50.523+02:00Thanks for the positive feedback!

I'm only up to Week 4 of the course and I have already recognised many fundamental misunderstandings I have gained through my university courses! Not only that, but this course is waaaaaay more interesting than the frequentist stats courses I've been forced to do. Again, thank you :) Keep up the amazing work.Dave Hegartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13663406564494244814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987850932434001559.post-3901979381830666112016-10-12T08:25:00.497+02:002016-10-12T08:25:00.497+02:00That would be totally awesome!

One problem is the over-dominance of frequentist approach in the research and education. Look at the classical textbook, Roger Kirk's "Experimental Design", it collects the classical works of the frequentist approach and has inspired the generations of researchers. However, the cautions in this book have yet explicitly influence its readers make serious decision in their study. This is the time to adjust the way to teach the behavioral scientists use the statistical concepts and tools. <br /><br />Is there any idea to attract the non-English Coursera users join this course? I'm glad to help translate the materials to Chinese.暗微幽光https://www.blogger.com/profile/04263939145424858882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987850932434001559.post-79982761196515125422016-10-10T17:20:43.005+02:002016-10-10T17:20:43.005+02:00Thanks!

There is a difference between a likelihood ratio (see lecture 2.1) and maximum likelihood estimation. The 3 approaches are also discussed in Royall's book on Likelihoods.Daniel Lakenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18143834258497875354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987850932434001559.post-66335118076733530552016-10-10T12:51:02.275+02:002016-10-10T12:51:02.275+02:00I am enjoying the course very much.

Is this classification standard?<br /><br />I thought that Neyman-Pearson was the same approach that likelihoods. Given a null hypothesis test, I use a statistic that often corresponds to the statistic arising from a likelihood ration test (for example the t-test for the mean).
