Learning outcomes
- Frame a statistical question and validate the observations, variables, and sampling process.
- Summarize distributions with measures that reflect shape, spread, and unusual values.
- Model bounded uncertainty with explicit events, assumptions, and reproducible simulation.
- Estimate population quantities and explain uncertainty through sampling distributions.
- Test a predeclared claim while reporting assumptions, uncertainty, and practical effect.
- Quantify relationships without confusing association, prediction, and causation.
- Select robust statistical methods for counts, ranks, and violated parametric assumptions.
- Deliver a reproducible statistical analysis with validated data, justified methods, and honest conclusions.
