Easy access to simple, reliable definitions and explanations of modern statistical and statistics-related concepts. Over 3600 terms are defined, covering medical, survey, theoretical, and applied statistics, including computational aspects. Most definitions include a reference to an extended account of the term; many are accompanied by graphical material to aid understanding.
If you work with data and need easy access to clear, reliable definitions and explanations of modern statistical and statistics-related concepts, then look no further than this dictionary. Nearly 4000 terms are defined, covering medical, survey, theoretical, and applied statistics, including computational and graphical aspects. Entries are provided for standard and specialized statistical software. In addition, short biographies of over 100 important statisticians are given. Definitions provide enough mathematical detail to clarify concepts and give standard formulae when these are helpful. The majority of definitions then give a reference to a book or article where the user can seek further or more specialized information, and many are accompanied by graphical material to aid understanding.
