Descripciones mejoradas de Syndetics:

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.

CHOICE Review

Kanji has collected 100 mostly elementary statistical tests presented in a brief, standardized format: (1) object of the test; (2) limitations of the test (absent in some cases); (3) detailed formulas; and (4) numerical example. The purpose of the collection is to provide a useful reference for applied statisticians, students, and everyday users of statistics. No proofs for the tests are included, nor are any indications given to inform or warn the novice of robustness or sensitivity of the tests to departures from underlying assumptions. The book includes a complete set of tables to go along with the tests. General; professional.
