From Prompt to Prediction: Applying ChatGPT in Applied Regression Analysis
Distinguished Chair Prof. Sung Kyum Cho
Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology (DGIST), South Korea
This workshop introduces social science researchers, educators, and students to the practical use of ChatGPT and generative AI tools in conducting and communicating regression-based research. Participants will learn how to move from natural language prompts to structured analytical workflows that support variable selection, hypothesis formation, model interpretation, and academic writing.
The session combines hands-on demonstrations with conceptual guidance to show how ChatGPT can assist at every stage of the research process—from refining research questions to interpreting regression outputs and drafting discussion sections. Special emphasis will be placed on ethical use, reproducibility, and enhancing—not replacing—critical thinking and domain expertise.
Whether you’re conducting quantitative analysis for a thesis, publication, or policy project, this workshop offers a timely opportunity to integrate cutting-edge AI tools into your social science research practice.
