Welcome to my blog

I mainly post about data analysis and applied statistics stuff, usually in R. Frequent topics include Bayesian statistics, multilevel models, and statistical power.

bookdown, My Process

The purpose of this post is to give readers a sense of how I used bookdown to make my first ebooks. I propose there are three fundamental skill sets you need basic fluency in before playing with bookdown: (a) R and R Studio, (b) scripts and R Markdown files, and (c) Git and GitHub.
