Product Description

James E. DeMuth

Basic Statistics and Pharmaceutical Statistical Applications, 2nd Edition has been completed updated, and continues to provide coverage of a variety of statistical areas.
New chapters to this edition cover survival statistics, including actuarial analysis, and an introduction to multiple regression with survival data using proportional hazards regression. There's also an introduction to the topic of evidence-based practice, with discussions of sensitivity and specificity, along with predictive values and likelihood ratios.

Updated chapter topics also include:

• Measures of association primarily with nominal and ordinal data and more than 15 tests
• Odds ratios and relative risk ratios that provide valuable information for dealing with probability, odds, and risk
• Power and sample size determination for two-sample Z-tests of proportions
• Clinical equivalence and noninferiority studies, process capability, and tolerance limits
• Methods for assessing repeatability and reproducibility
  ...and MUCH more!

Newly updated and expanded information of this second edition also cover topics like:

• Chi square, repeated measures designs, Latin Square designs, nine multiple comparision tests, and outlier testing
• Inverse prediction with linear data
• Additional types of bivariate correlations and various assessments for independence and randomness
• More nonparametric tests including new information on post hoc comparisons for a significant Kruskal-Wallis test, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit test, and the Anderson-Darling test
  ....and much more, including eight new tables to help interpreting some of the new inferential statistics!

Dr. DeMuth provides concrete examples throughout this entire book, enabling you to effectively manage information in your day-to-day problem solving activities. Unlike other texts, this reference isn't heavy on theory, giving everyone the chance to benefit and increase their confidence in using statistics procedures.
