Regression Modeling

Regression Modeling

Regression modeling is a foundational skill for  those conducting secondary data analysis, much like you will encounter  in the completion of the Doctor of Healthcare Administration (DHA)  program. Additionally, regression modeling assists in finding  connections among multiple variables and one dependent variable.  Consider, for example, a healthcare administrator who may be asked to  develop or interpret models of patient satisfaction based on other  quantitative or dichotomous variables.
