Writing a Scientific Paper. 330 $aThis textbook offers a step-by-step introduction to the fundamentals of data analysis. It begins with descriptive analyses, moves on to linear regression, and then covers more advanced and sophisticated statistical models. Using the freely available statistical software R, the analyses are implemented in a clear and practical manner to make the theoretical concepts more tangible. In addition, the author introduces Quarto Markdown ? a tool that significantly simplifies the technical aspects of writing seminar papers, bachelor?s and master?s theses. Exercises at the end of each chapter encourage readers to apply the material covered and dig deeper on their own. The book is primarily intended for students in the social sciences. The English translation of this book, originally in German, was facilitated by artificial intelligence. The content was later revised by the author for accuracy. 410 0$aSpringer Texts in Political Science and International Relations,$x2730-9568 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aSociology$xMethodology 606 $aSocial sciences$xStatistical methods 606 $aMethodology of Political Science 606 $aSociological Methods 606 $aStatistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public Policy 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aSociology$xMethodology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xStatistical methods. 615 14$aMethodology of Political Science. 615 24$aSociological Methods. 615 24$aStatistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public Policy. 676 $a320.0721 700 $aSchlegel$b Benjamin E$01892815 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911061732803321 996 $aData Science for the Social Sciences$94539753 997 $aUNINA
