[大綱初稿，正式大綱見2017二月版]
我們正處於一個利用數字來描述與理解社會的時代。比方說，政治上，我們利用民調來判斷總統的受歡迎或受厭惡程度；經濟上，我們用失業率來評斷政府的施政表現；學術上，亦常使用普查或調查的資料來進行研究，如利用「台灣社會變遷基本調查」來檢驗教育年數與薪資水準的相關關係。也因此，社會統計是各大學社會學系的核心必備課程。不過，即使統計於生活或於研究皆扮演了舉足輕重的角色，繁複的統計公式與模型卻常另許多學子敬而遠之。本課因此將以「統計思考」作為課程核心主軸，而非一般社會統計課程強調的公式運算。本課程希冀以較為科普的教學方式介紹統計觀念與背景，並指出常見的不良統計來源與狀況，以增廣學生的統計思維能力，並搭配統計軟體的學習，來加強對統計的應用能力。本學期的課程將著重於雙變項與多變項的統計分析，包含T-檢定、卡方檢定、變異數分析與迴歸分析等。
[First draft of the Dabao, official visit to the February 2017 edition]
We are in an era where numbers are used to describe and understand society. For example, in politics, we use public tutors to judge the popularity or misfortune of the president; economically, we use unemployment rates to evaluate the government's governance performance; in academics, we often use census or survey data for research, such as using the "Basic Survey of Taiwan Social Changes" to examine the relationship between education years and salary level. Therefore, social statistics are the core essential courses in various major social departments. However, even if the statutes play a very important role in life or research, many students often respect the complex statute formulas and models. Therefore, this course will use "State Thinking" as the core main axis of the course, rather than the formula calculation emphasized by general social statistical courses. This course hopes to introduce the concepts and backgrounds of the more popular science teaching methods, and point out common sources and conditions of bad statistical sources, so as to enhance students' thinking ability and combine them with the learning of the statistical software to enhance their application ability. The courses in this period will focus on the statistical analysis of double and multiple variations, including T-confirmation, chi-square determination, variation number analysis and regression analysis.
