Introduction to the New Statistics

Viac o knihe

This accessible informal text is the first introductory statistics book to use an estimation approach from the get go to help readers better understand effect sizes, confidence intervals, and meta-analysis. In Chapter 6 the NHST approach is also introduced and the authors demonstrate how to translate back and forth between these two techniques. The Open Science framework which promotes data replication is integrated throughout. The book promotes critical thinking, comprehension, and retention. It can be used with or without the free ESCI software and videos which feature interactive simulations of key concepts. Exercises with commentary allow readers to test their knowledge of the topic.
