Dix, Alan
Statistics for HCI : Making Sense of Quantitative Data by Alan Dix - 1st edition 2020 - 1 recurso en línea (XIX, 161 páginas) - Synthesis Lectures on Human-Centered Informatics 1946-7699 .
Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- The unexpected wildness of random -- Properties of randomness -- Characterising the random through probability distributions -- Probing the unknown -- Traditional statistics -- Bayesian methods -- Common issues -- Differences and distinctions -- Gaining power -- the dreaded `too few participants' -- So what? --- making sense of results -- Moving forward: the future of statistics in HCI -- Bibliography -- Author's Biography -- Index.
Many people find statistics confusing, and perhaps even more confusing given recent publicity about problems with traditional p-values and alternative statistical techniques including confidence intervals and Bayesian statistics. This book aims to help readers navigate this morass: to understand the debates, to be able to read and assess other people's statistical reports, and make appropriate choices when designing and analysing their own experiments, empirical studies, and other forms of quantitative data gathering.
