Videos were evaluated using Global Quality Score [GQS] checklists and were classified as useful and insufficient by two statisticians. Results: From among the 70 videos analyzed, 53 were included. The mean GQS value was 3.9+1.1. Fourty videos (75.5%) were classified as useful. Independent users tend to upload videos mostly Lecturer / PhD, Lecturer Msc. and Data science course channel. Significant difference was observed in GQS among useful and insufficient videos. The mean GQS scores of useful videos were 4.3 (s.d.:0.8), for insuffient videos were 2.5 (s.d.:0.5). Conclusion: Specialists or instructors could refer their students to YouTube resources and actively participate in the development of video-sharing platforms for biostatistics.
