There are extended discussions of selected topics and references in a book that do not make sense to feature online. For example, <a style=\"font-size: 14px\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/us\/academic\/subjects\/statistics-probability\/statistics-econometrics-finance-and-insurance\/regression-modeling-actuarial-and-financial-applications?format=PB\" target=\"_blank\">Frees (2009)<\/a> contains detailed analyses of cases from the literature and in-depth technical supplements that are not available here.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, this online resource offers some interactive features that cannot be produced in a static book. Specifically, in this online site, I<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>integrate the use of a statistical package <span style=\"font-family: 'American   Typewriter'\">R<\/span> that allows the viewer to create output on the fly. In contrast, the book develops general statistical principles and does not endorse, nor re-enforce, any statistical package.<\/li>\n<li>offer video instruction for topics. Many learners find that reading works well for them whereas others enjoy the sound and dynamic content of a video.<\/li>\n<li>feature other interactive features such as an online glossary (hover your mouse over the word variable) and quizzes to check your knowledge as you move forward.<\/li>\n<li>hope to integrate other languages into this content going forward.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Both books and online sites offer complementary resources for learners (which is all of us). I hope you find this site useful in your studies.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/users.ssc.wisc.edu\/~ewfrees\/regression\/active-learning-and-r\/\" title=\"Active Learning and R\">Next page &#9658<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this portion of the website, I collect resources for the study of regression and time series.
