GENERALIZED LINEAR AND ADDITIVE MIXED MODELING FOR LINGUISTS

Please join Spanish and Portuguese GSA on Friday, November 19 from 10 am to 2.30 pm for the online workshop “Generalized Linear and Additive Mixed Modeling for Linguists” led by Prof. Márton Sóskuthy from The University of British Columbia. In this workshop, we will review GLMMs and will take our first steps in Generalized Additive Mixed Models (GAMM). GAMM is a great option to analyze non-linear data but still have interpretable results (the nightmare of us all!). It will have brief lecture sections followed by hands-on exercises. We will be using R and RStudio. Make sure you have the packages tidyverse, lme4, mgcv, and itsadug up and running in advance.

The workshop will be completely online (https://rutgers.zoom.us/j/91001542002?pwd=YnJFcVFDRmtvNFpBazdkNFMrdWNlUT09) and there will be a 45-minute break at around noon.

For questions, contact Laura at laura.fdeza@rutgers.edu. Looking forward to seeing you all there!
