This course is a survey of applied statistical concepts used in the evaluation of health promotion programs. The focus will be on learning the basics of tabulating research data for analysis, the proper application of principal statistical tests, and appropriate display techniques for the explanation and interpretation of research results. During the course, a number of prominent variables examined in health promotion evaluation will be used as practical examples. Examples of these variables include, but are not limited to health risk, absenteeism, productivity, and health care use. There will be a few reprints that are required reading for this course and these will be distributed according to the Course Syllabus .
