Self-paced course provided by University College London.


This online self-paced course gives you an overview of regression types and details the application of multiple linear regression. The main part of the course focuses on the theory behind regression analysis, in particular linear regression, and covers the formulation, interpretation and validation of linear regression models. This course takes you from the basics of types of regression to the formulation of a multiple linear regression model. Interaction terms are introduced and explained.


Regression analysis is a very powerful technique that allows you to investigate the combined associations between one or more predictors and an outcome.


Some examples where this is helpful are:



  • where within a trial you may wish to adjust for factors that differ between treatment groups to gauge the true effect of treatment

  • in observational studies where you might want to take into account differences between the demographics or health behaviours of two or more subgroups

  • when considering the combined effects of different factors, which may facilitate understanding of variation in outcome


Regression is a vital tool for any quantitative researcher.
