While many degree programs require a course in parametric statistics, these methods are often inadequate for real-world decision making in business environments. Much of the data collected today by business executives (for example, customer satisfaction opinions) requires nonparametric statistics for valid analysis, and this book provides the reader with a set of tools that can be used to validly analyze all data, regardless of type. Through numerous examples and exercises, this book explains why nonparametric statistics will lead to better decisions and how they are used to reach a decision, with a wide array of business applications. Online resources include exercise data, spreadsheets, and solutions. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Statistics,$x2191-544X 606 $aStatistics  606 $aOperations research 606 $aDecision making 606 $aBusiness mathematics 606 $aBig data 606 $aStatistics for Business, Management, Economics, Finance, Insurance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17010 606 $aStatistical Theory and Methods$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S11001 606 $aOperations Research/Decision Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000 606 $aBusiness Mathematics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/523000 606 $aBig Data/Analytics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522070 615 0$aStatistics . 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aDecision making. 615 0$aBusiness mathematics. 615 0$aBig data. 615 14$aStatistics for Business, Management, Economics, Finance, Insurance. 615 24$aStatistical Theory and Methods. 615 24$aOperations Research/Decision Theory. 615 24$aBusiness Mathematics. 615 24$aBig Data/Analytics. 676 $a519.5 700 $aBeatty$b Warren$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0768228 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300119503321 996 $aDecision Support Using Nonparametric Statistics$91564700 997 $aUNINA
