This course covers commonly used statistical inference methods for numerical and categorical data. You will learn how to set up and perform hypothesis tests, interpret p-values, and report the results of your analysis in a way that is interpretable for clients or the public. Using numerous data examples, you will learn to report estimates of quantities in a way that expresses the uncertainty of the quantity of interest. You will be guided through installing and using R and RStudio (free statistical software), and will use this software for lab exercises and a final project. The course introduces practical tools for performing data analysis and explores the fundamental concepts necessary to interpret and report results for both categorical and numerical data

About the Specialization and the Course
This short module introduces basics about Coursera specializations and courses in general, this specialization: Statistics with R, and this course: Inferential Statistics. Please take several minutes to browse them through. Thanks for joining us in this course!
Central Limit Theorem and Confidence Interval
Welcome to Inferential Statistics! In this course we will discuss Foundations for Inference. Check out the learning objectives, start watching the videos, and finally work on the quiz and the labs of this week. In addition to videos that introduce new concepts, you will also see a few videos that walk you through application examples related to the week's topics. In the first week we will introduce Central Limit Theorem (CLT) and confidence interval.
Inference and Significance
Welcome to Week Two! This week we will discuss formal hypothesis testing and relate testing procedures back to estimation via confidence intervals. These topics will be introduced within the context of working with a population mean, however we will also give you a brief peek at what's to come in the next two weeks by discussing how the methods we're learning can be extended to other estimators. We will also discuss crucial considerations like decision errors and statistical vs. practical significance. The labs for this week will illustrate concepts of sampling distributions and confidence levels.
Inference for Comparing Means
Welcome to Week Three of the course! This week we will introduce the t-distribution and comparing means as well as a simulation based method for creating a confidence interval: bootstrapping. If you have questions or discussions, please use this week's forum to ask/discuss with peers.
Inference for Proportions
Welcome to Week Four of our course! In this unit, we’ll discuss inference for categorical data. We use methods introduced this week to answer questions like “What proportion of the American public approves of the job of the Supreme Court is doing?”.

INFERENTIAL STATISTICS의 최상위 리뷰
Great course. If you put in a little effort, you will come out with a lot of new knowledge. I recommend using the book after you have seen the movies. It gives a deeper picture of how it works. Great!
This course by Professor Çetinkaya-Rundel is awesome because it is taught in a very clear and vivid way. Lab section and forum are so dope that I love them so much! Definitely strong recommendation!!!
This course is an excellent overview of inferential statistic tests / hypothesis tests and confidence intervals. The organization and material is quite good, with exercises and applications using R.
Awesome. I loved the way this course is done. I know what Test Statistic to use for what type of data and under which conditions. I am preparing a cheat-sheet that will be shared with all later on.

자주 묻는 질문
강의 및 과제를 언제 이용할 수 있게 되나요?
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
- The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
- The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

예, Coursera에서는 수업료를 낼 수 없는 학습자를 위해 재정 지원을 제공합니다. 왼쪽에 있는 등록 버튼 아래 재정 지원 링크를 클릭하면 지원할 수 있습니다. 신청서를 작성하라는 메시지가 표시되며 승인되면 알림을 받습니다. 성취 프로젝트를 포함하여 전문 분야의 각 강좌에서 이 단계를 완료해야 합니다. 자세히 알아보기.
Cost of the Course
If you want to complete the course and earn a Course Certificate by submitting assignments for a grade, you can upgrade your experience by subscribing to the course for $49/month. You can also apply for financial aid if you can't afford the course fee.
When you enroll in a course that is part of a Specialization (which this course is), you will automatically be enrolled in the entire Specialization. You can unenroll from the Specialization if you’re not interested in the other courses or cancel your subscription once you complete the single course.
Can I just enroll in a single course? I'm not interested in the entire Specialization.
To enroll in an individual course, search for the course title in the catalog.
To get full access to a course, including the option to earn grades and a Course Certificate, you'll need to subscribe. New subscribers will start with a full access subscription, which includes full access to every course in the Coursera catalog. Existing Specialization subscribers will be given the option to update to a full access subscription when enrolling in a new Specialization or course.
When you enroll in a course that is part of a Specialization, you will automatically be enrolled in the entire Specialization. You can unenroll from the Specialization if you’re not interested in the other courses.
Will I receive a transcript from Duke University for completing this course?
No. Completion of a Coursera course does not earn you academic credit from Duke; therefore, Duke is not able to provide you with a university transcript. However, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
