Publisher's Synopsis
As the number of statistical tests has increased, so has the need for a single source of reference. Bringing together the hundred most commonly used tests, this volume provides just such an indispensable aid for student and statistician alike. The 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.
