ABSTRACT
Most researchers (PhD students, masters students and instructors),ask themselves on the mportance of modeling in statistical analysis. Why not simply doing descriptive anlysis? What is the difference between statistical modelling and descriptive analysis/other inferential tests such as chi-square? Are they suppoting each other or contradicting each other?

An expert from SUALISA would be discussing among other things, importance of statistical modeling as opposed to descriptive analysis and other inferential tests. Come for listening and/or discussing such interesting issues in the academia world.  

You will be introduced to among other things, chi-square and correlation analysis Multiple linear regression model as the stepping stone to the rest of the statistical models, binary logistic and probit models, multinomial and ordinal regression models, panel data regression and  principal component analysis..
