PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

First Place for Youth, Oakland, CA May 2011- September 2011

Statistics Support Intern

Recoded the data to fit into SPSS for performing statistical analysis.

Designed and performed statistical analysis independently to understand the program outcomes in regard to the risk factors, service type and quantity factors, demographics factors. Compared the paired variables using pie chart, bar chart and box plot.

Performed t-test, Chi-square test, Crosstab Analysis, Multinomial Logistic Regression analysis, regression analysis with stepwise model selection and analysis of variance to reveal the factor significance and identified a tipping point on the length of program to achieve a high level outcome.

Recommended new approaches to analyze, interpret, and disseminate the identified data.

All results were written in a technical report and explained in depth to the people with little statistics background.
