anes_prochoice

A simple data set for in-class illustration about how to estimate and interpret
 interactive relationships. The data here are deliberately minimal for that end.

datasets

This is a collection of various kinds of data with broad uses for teaching.
My students, and academics like me who teach the same topics I teach, should find
this useful if their teaching workflow is also built around the R programming
language. The applications are multiple but mostly cluster on topics of statistical
methodology, international relations, and political economy.
