Description:
In the module Data Analysis of the course Quantitative Methods for Decision Making, students have learned the basic linear regression models and techniques such as ordinary least squares and instrumental variables estimation. In the STATA course, students get examples of real data and actual research questions that can be analyzed using the tools they have learned in the Data Analysis Module. Using the software package STATA, they get hands on experience in estimation and testing to investigate, for example, the effect of the characteristics of TV commercials for how well people recall the product that is advertised, variation in house prices as a consequence of differences in house characteristics, or the causal effect of education on wages. STATA is a general-purpose statistical software package developed by StataCorp that provides all that you need for your data science: data manipulation, visualization, statistics, and automated reporting. It is used by researchers in many fields, including economics, business administration, biomedicine, epidemiology, sociology and science.

What does "Blockchain Verified Badge" mean?
CBOX digital badges ensure the authenticity and incontestability of the statements they contain thanks to blockchain technology: a computer system consisting of communication protocols and network infrastructure that allows recording any type of information in a decentralized, transparent, secure, and immutable way, proof against any tampering or corruption. Every time a badge's page is opened, a real-time verification is performed by comparing the displayed data with the data stored on the blockchain.
How is the information verified?
At the time of issuance, all the information contained in a badge is notarized on the blockchain: this means that a unique and incontrovertible "digital fingerprint", called a hash-code, is recorded. Starting from the same set of data, the generated hash-code is always the same. Even modifying just one bit of such data results in a completely different hash-code. The cryptographic process that allows verifying that data has not been tampered with consists of generating its hash-code and comparing it with the hash-code originally saved on the blockchain. The match between the two codes is the incontestable and unequivocal proof that the information contained in the certification has not been altered after issuance.
