Statistical Methods: Connections, Equivalencies, and Relationships

Download or read book Statistical Methods: Connections, Equivalencies, and Relationships written by Kenneth J. Berry and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-08 with total page 795 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this book is to introduce the reader to a wide variety of interesting and useful connections, relationships, and equivalencies between and among conventional and permutation statistical methods. There are approximately 320 statistical connections and relationships described in this book. For each connection or connections the tests are described, the connection is explained, and an example analysis illustrates both the tests and the connection(s). The emphasis is more on demonstrations than on proofs, so little mathematical expertise is assumed. While the book is intended as a stand-alone monograph, it can also be used as a supplement to a standard textbook such as might be used in a second- or third-term course in conventional statistical methods. Students, faculty, and researchers in the social, natural, or hard sciences will find an interesting collection of statistical connections and relationships - some well-known, some more obscure, and some presented here for the first time.
