It covers background issues, such as the link between hypothesis tests and confidence intervals and why it is usually preferable to report the latter. Chapters begin with the simplest cases of a mean or a proportion based on a single sample and then move on to more complex applications. Although the books illustrative examples are mainly health-related, the methods described can also be applied to research in a wide range of disciplines--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aChapman & Hall/CRC biostatistics series (Unnumbered) 606 $aBiometry 606 $aStatistics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBiometry. 615 0$aStatistics. 676 $a610.72/7 700 $aNewcombe$b Robert G.$0877589 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465449903321 996 $aConfidence intervals for proportions and related measures of effect size$91959644 997 $aUNINA
