1 Fall 2003 Mondays & Wednesdays 10:15 11:30 a.m. Southwest Quadrangle Classroom #131 PPOL : Quantitative Methods I Georgetown Public Policy Institute Professor: Carolyn Hill, GPPI 111 TA: Julie Radocchia cjh34@georgetown.edu jar62@georgetown.edu Tel: (202) Recitation session: TBA Office hours: Tuesdays, 1-2 p.m. or by appointment Course Description Quantitative Methods I is the first course in the three-course quantitative sequence at GPPI. This course introduces students to research methods and to descriptive and inferential statistics that are often used in public policy research. The course aims to provide students with a solid foundation for analyzing data, conveying analyses in convincing and appropriate ways, and developing further statistical skills. Thus, the emphasis is on understanding research questions and designs, describing data, and developing a core understanding of the scientific method in social science research. Texts and Materials Required: Healey, Joseph F Statistics: A Tool for Social Research, 6 th Edition (Belmont, CA: Wadsworth). Morgan, Susan E., Tom Reichert, and Tyler R. Harrison From Numbers to Words: Reporting Statistical Results for the Social Sciences (Boston: Allyn and Bacon). Course Packet (available from Kerry Pace). Optional but recommended: Either: Or: Delwiche, Lora D., and Susan J. Slaughter The Little SAS Book: A Primer, 2 nd Edition (Cary, NC: SAS Publishing). Cody, Ronald P., and Jeffrey K. Smith Applied Statistics and the SAS Programming Language, 4 th Edition (Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice-Hall). I recommend The Little SAS Book if you have no prior exposure to statistics and to SAS programming. I recommend Applied Statistics and the SAS Programming Language if you have some prior exposure to statistics or to SAS. And: Black, Thomas R Evaluating Social Science Research: An Introduction (Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications). Sharing these optional books is a good idea. If want them you can probably find a good deal on a used copy through amazon.com, powells.com, alibris.com, or other sites (I did not ask the Georgetown Book Store to stock them). 1
2 Other materials: Articles, notes, and other materials will be handed out in class. Data for the problem sets will be provided, or instructions for obtaining the data will be given. A hand-held calculator will be helpful. The statistical software package SAS will be used in this class (and also in Quant II and III). This software is available on the GPPI computers, but students can also purchase copies of SAS for their home computers for $25 from Hoya Computing (room G-36 in St. Mary s Hall), Tel: (202) ( Course Requirements and Grading Course grades will be based on the following: Class participation and effort 5% Problem sets core problem sets (9) 25% final project/paper 15% Midterm exam (Wednesday, October 22) 25% Final exam (Friday, December 12) 30% Problem sets will be handed out on Mondays and will be due the following Monday in class. Students are strongly encouraged to work on these problem sets in study groups. However, each student must prepare and submit his or her own write-up for each problem set (including SAS programs and output when appropriate). Exams will be closed-book, closed-note. I will supply a sheet of formulas. Letter grades will be based on the weighted average of all your coursework. I will curve the grades, but I do not have a predetermined distribution of final grades in mind.
