I created this page in order to organize in one place the statistical resources that are available to faculty and students at Colorado College, especially those affiliated with the Sociology Department.  This page contains links to:

AVAILABLE DATA SETS
Data files available in the MicroCase Data Archive as well as data files that can be downloaded from the Web

ON-LINE STATISTICS

Overview of STATISTICAL THINKING
Information about how to approach statistical data analysis--what are the basic concepts and what statistics can accomplish

QUANTITATIVE METHODS

Sources to help review the basics of collecting quantitative data--and recognizing the limitations of such data

SECONDARY ANALYSIS

The logic of using other people's data
