...This version is designed for students following the 2024 lecture series, offering the most current set of examples, exercises, and teaching material aligned with the Statistical Rethinking framework. Online, flipped instruction. I will pre-record the lectures each week. We'll meet online once a week for an hour to discuss the material. The discussion time (3-4pm Berlin Time) should allow people in the Americas to join in their morning.

...Part of the tidyverse ecosystem, dplyr simplifies complex data operations through a clear and readable syntax, whether working with data frames, tibbles, or databases. It is widely used in data science and statistical analysis workflows.

easystats is a meta‑package that installs and unifies a suite of R packages for post‑processing statistical models. It delivers a consistent API to assess model performance, effect sizes, parameters, and to generate reports and visualizations, all with minimal dependencies and maximum clarity.

The 2023 edition modernizes and expands on the same curriculum, adjusting exercises and code for newer versions of R, Stan, and supporting packages. It continues to provide scripts for lectures and tutorials, while integrating refinements to examples, notation, and computational workflows introduced that year. Compared with 2022, some models are rewritten for clarity, and teaching materials reflect refinements in McElreath’s evolving presentation of Bayesian data analysis. Students following...

This repository hosts the 2022 version of the Statistical Rethinking course. It contains course materials such as R scripts, notebooks, and worked examples aligned with McElreath’s textbook. The code emphasizes Bayesian data analysis using R, the rethinking package, and Stan models. It includes lecture code files, example datasets, and structured exercises that parallel the topics covered in the lectures (probability, regression, model comparison, Bayesian updating).

...It combines the benefits of various open-source software tools including R Markdown, Git, Make, and Docker, whose interplay ensures seamless integration of version management, dynamic report generation conforming to various journal styles, and full cross-platform and long-term computational reproducibility. The workflow ensures meeting the primary goals that 1) the reporting of statistical results is consistent with the actual statistical results (dynamic report generation), 2) the analysis exactly reproduces at a later point in time even if the computing platform or software is changed (computational reproducibility), and 3) changes at any time (during development and post-publication) are tracked, tagged, and documented while earlier versions of both data and code remain accessible.

RStan is the R interface to Stan, a C++ library for statistical modeling and high-performance statistical computation. It lets users specify models in the Stan modeling language (for Bayesian inference), compile them, and perform inference from R. Key inference approaches include full Bayesian inference via Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (specifically the No-U-Turn Sampler, NUTS), approximate Bayesian inference via variational methods, and optimization (penalized likelihood). ...
