Data Analysis and Presentation for Nursing Research: Qualitative Analysis, Descriptive and Inferential Statistics

A research and biostatistics deck that starts with qualitative work - organising and cleaning the data, creating categories, generating themes and interpreting them - then moves to quantitative analysis. Descriptive statistics are covered with the mean, median and mode, the measures of variability, standard deviation and variance with their formulae, positive and negative skew, kurtosis, the characteristics of the normal curve and the frequency distribution table. Graphic presentation follows with the histogram, frequency polygon and bar chart, the rules for choosing between them, and percentages. The last section is inferential statistics: correlation, chi-square, regression, ANOVA and the t-test with worked examples, the probability and confidence levels a researcher must set, and the two types of error in hypothesis testing.
