Inhaltsangabe

Employing a conversational format and consciously de-emphasizing computational devices, this text focuses instead on the features of experimental design that either clarify or blur p value interpretation, so as to make statistical reasoning accessible to the uninitiated. Through careful, deliberate thought this book provides the non-mathematician with a foundation for understanding the underlying statistical reasoning process in clinical research. It recognizes the inevitable tension between the mathematics of hypothesis testing and the ethical requirements in medical research and concentrates on resolving these issues in p value interpretation.
