Interpreting and Reporting Estimates, Confidence Intervals, and P values (live webinar; 1 hour in duration )

Tom Lang (Tom Lang Communications, USA)                             

During this 1-hour live webinar, Tom will build on the previous webinar on interpreting and reporting descriptive statistics by exploring the reasoning behind confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. Participants will learn the strengths and weaknesses of P values, estimates and measures of precision when reporting research results. In the delivery of the webinar, it will be assumed that the participants have no background in the topic, and all focus will be on the interpreting and reporting of statistics, not on calculating them.
