An introduction discusses the principles of hypothesis-testing. Examples of the procedure for selected tests follow, illustrating statistical method in practice. The purpose of each test is summarized and a classification chart identifies their interconnections and contexts of use. The bulk of the book consists of clear, concise outlines of the objective, method, strengths and limitations of each test, giving sample data. All the relevant tables of critical values are included. 100 Statistical Tests is an invaluable addition to the bookshelf of anyone working with applied statistics and quantitative methodologies throughout the social sciences, business and management. |
