Studying Association using AddHealth Dataset

With Data Analysis case study, as course assignments, Goal was to learn data analysis using python libraries using a case study approach where I had to choose a hypothesis and go through all steps of data analysis to understand that better, mainly study association.


I decided to work on an AddHealth codebook and study the association between social acceptance and self esteem.


Libraries used:

Pandas

Numpy

Seaborn

Matplotlib.pyplot

Scipy

Statsmodels


I choose variables related to social acceptance and self esteem. I performed literature review, studied frequency distribution, performed data munging and visualization steps, plotting and discovering associations, performed hypothesis testing.

I used exploratory data analysis and visualization to work through this analysis.
