Statistical Hypothesis Tests: Concepts & Applications

Overview:

Many engineers, scientists, and business analysts struggle with the application of statistical methods when analyzing data to making decisions.

Non-statisticians frequently seek help in tasks such as determining appropriate sample sizes, interpreting tests results, and distinguishing statistical differences from practical differences.
