| Abstract | Statistical analysis is an important part of the research process. Researchers are advised to include a statistician from the moment that the study is being planned. The statistical plan informs the research process, including sample size requirements and the most robust data collection. Once the data are collected, descriptive and inferential statistical analyses are performed. The results of this analysis determine whether the findings are significant, which leads to an interpretation of the findings. The importance of the statistical plan and analysis for the researcher is self-evident. However, it is also important for the reader of published papers to have some knowledge of statistical analysis. This allows critical review of all aspects of the published manuscript. The intent of this paper is to review some basic statistical concepts and thus allow the reader to become a better consumer of the literature. |
