Statistics Decision Helper

Here is a small aid to help students determine the appropriate statistic to use for analyzing their data.  This little set of pages is not comprehensive but includes statistics often used in basic designs.  It also assumes that the students know the statistics stated.

These pages will take the student through a series of questions about their data, design and the questions the want to know about the data.
 
 

Type of data represented by the measured or dependent variable?

 

Frequency (counts) Ordinal Interval (or ratio)
