Describes statistical intervals to quantify sampling
uncertainty,focusing on key application needs and recently
developed methodology in an easy-to-apply format Statistical
intervals provide invaluable tools for quantifying sampling
uncertainty. The widely hailed first edition, published in 1991,
described the use and construction of the most important
statistical intervals. Particular emphasis was given to intervals
such as prediction intervals, tolerance intervals and confidence
intervals on distribution quantiles frequently needed in practice,
but often neglected in introductory courses. Vastly improved
computer capabilities over the past 25 years have resulted in an
explosion of the tools readily available to analysts. This second
edition more than double the size of the first adds these new
methods in an easy-to-apply format. In addition to extensive
updating of the original chapters, the second edition includes new
chapters on: * Likelihood-based statistical intervals *
Nonparametric bootstrap intervals * Parametric bootstrap and other
simulation-based intervals * An introduction to Bayesian intervals
* Bayesian intervals for the popular binomial, Poisson and normal
distributions * Statistical intervals for Bayesian hierarchical
models * Advanced case studies, further illustrating the use of the
newly described methods New technical appendices provide
justification of the methods and pathways to extensions and further
applications. A webpage directs readers to current readily
accessible computer software and other useful information.
Statistical Intervals: A Guide for Practitioners and Researchers,
Second Edition is an up-to-date working guide and reference for all
who analyze data, allowing them to quantify the uncertainty in
their results using statistical intervals.
