DataStatPro topic collection

Statistical Methods Guides and Decision Tools

This collection helps researchers move from a study question to an appropriate statistical method. Use the decision guide first when the analysis is unclear, then open the focused guides for confidence intervals, effect sizes, assumptions, and reporting.

Core answer

Start with the research question, outcome type, study design, and dependence structure. Then choose a method that estimates the quantity you need and report its uncertainty and effect size.

How to use this collection

Begin with the guide closest to your immediate decision. Record the assumptions, settings, and definitions you use, then open the linked DataStatPro workflow to apply the method. Educational examples should be adapted to the actual study protocol and data structure.
