| description | This book is not a textbook on statistical methods. Its aim is to sensitize statistical users to the limitations of the methods used. Limitations resulting directly from axioms, e.g. the theory of statistical hypothesis testing, or limitations that are a consequence of imperfections in the used statistical software. The use of advanced software by people who do not know the basics of statistics will lead to often irrational decisions. In this book, I also present in a critical manner the issues of the assessment of the effect size and the observed power of statistical tests (observed power of applied tests). In the last chapter, I sketch different approaches to testing hypotheses than the Neyman-Pearson theory, Bayesian methods and maximum likelihood methods. |
