In discovr: Interactive Tutorials and Data for "Discovering Statistics Using R and RStudio"

Resources

Statistics

• The tutorials typically follow examples described in detail in @fielddsr22026. That book covers the theoretical side of the statistical models, and has more depth on conducting and interpreting the models in these tutorials.
• If any of the statistical content doesn't make sense, you could try my more introductory book An adventure in statistics [@field_adventure_2022].
• There are free lectures and screencasts on my YouTube channel.
• There are free statistical resources on my various websites www.discoveringstatistics.com and profandyfield.com/discoverse.

r rproj()

• R for data science is an open-access book by the creator of the tidyverse (Hadley Wickham). It covers the tidyverse and data management.
• r rstudio() cheat sheets.
• r rstudio() list of online resources.

Acknowledgement

I'm extremely grateful to Allison Horst for her very informative blog post on styling learnr tutorials with CSS and also for sending me a CSS template file and allowing me to adapt it. Without Allison, these tutorials would look a lot worse (but she can't be blamed for my colour scheme).
