As such, it presents a Bayesian framework for a new approach to analyzing and interpreting experimental data. It also prepares students and researchers for reporting on experimental results. Normative aspects: The main views of statistical tests are revisited and the philosophies of Fisher, Neyman-Pearson and Jeffrey are discussed in detail. Descriptive aspects: The misuses of Null Hypothesis Significance Tests are reconsidered in light of Jeffreys’ Bayesian conceptions concerning the role of statistical inference in experimental investigations. Prescriptive aspects: The current effect size and confidence interval reporting practices are presented and seriously questioned. Methodological aspects are carefully discussed and fiducial Bayesian methods are proposed as a more suitable alternative for reporting on experimental results. In closing, basic routine procedures regarding the means and their generalization to the most common ANOVA applications are presented and illustrated. All the calculations discussed can be easily carried out using the freeware LePAC package.SpringerBriefs in Statistics,2191-5458StatisticsMathematical statisticsData processingStatistical Theory and MethodsStatistics and ComputingStatistics.Mathematical statisticsData processing.Statistical Theory and Methods.Statistics and Computing.519.56Lecoutre Brunoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut721201Poitevineau Jacquesauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299969503321The Significance Test Controversy Revisited2495550UNINA
