Statistical Rethinking Course for Jan-Mar 2023
Statistical Rethinking (2023 Edition)
For the 2024 version of the course see: https://github.com/rmcelreath/stat_rethinking_2024
Instructor: Richard McElreath
Lectures: Uploaded and pre-recorded, two per week
Discussion: Online (Zoom), Fridays 3pm-4pm Central European (Berlin) Time
Purpose
This course teaches data analysis, but it focuses on scientific models. The unfortunate truth about data is that nothing much can be done with it, until we say what caused it. We will prioritize conceptual, causal models and precise questions about those models. We will use Bayesian data analysis to connect scientific models to evidence. And we will learn powerful computational tools for coping with high-dimension, imperfect data of the kind that biologists and social scientists face.
Format
Online, flipped instruction. I will pre-record the lectures each week. We'll meet online once a week for an hour to discuss the material. The discussion time (3-4pm Berlin Time) should allow people in the Americas to join in their morning.
We'll use the 2nd edition of my book, <Statistical Rethinking>, and possibly some draft chapters for the 3rd edition. I'll provide a PDF of the book to enrolled students.
Registration: Closed.
Calendar & Topical Outline
There are 10 weeks of instruction. Links to lecture recordings will appear in this table. Weekly problem sets are assigned on Fridays and due the next Friday, when we discuss the solutions in the weekly online meeting.

Coding
This course involves a lot of scripting. Students can engage with the material using either the original R code examples or one of several conversions to other computing environments. The conversions are not always exact, but they are rather complete. Each option is listed below.
Original R Flavor
For those who want to use the original R code examples in the print book, you need to install the rethinking
R package. The code is all on github https://github.com/rmcelreath/rethinking/ and there are additional details about the package there, including information about using the more-up-to-date cmdstanr
instead of rstan
as the underlying MCMC engine.
R + Tidyverse + ggplot2 + brms
The <Tidyverse/brms> conversion is very high quality and complete through Chapter 14.
Python and PyMC3
The <Python/PyMC3> conversion is quite complete.
Julia and Turing
The <Julia/Turing> conversion is not as complete, but is growing fast and presents the Rethinking examples in multiple Julia engines, including the great <TuringLang>.
Other
The are several other conversions. See the full list at https://xcelab.net/rm/statistical-rethinking/.
Homework and solutions
I will also post problem sets and solutions. Check the folders at the top of the repository.
