Beyond Significance Testing: Reforming Data Analysis Methods in Behavioral Research

They will also learn how to calculate and correctly interpret confidence intervals for effect sizes. Numerous research examples from a wide range of areas illustrate how to apply these principles and how to estimate substantive significance instead of just statistical significance. Additional alternatives to statistical tests are described, including meta-analysis, resampling techniques like bootstrapping, and Bayesian estimation.”–BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
