The first part of this title contained all statistical tests
relevant to starting clinical investigations, and included tests
for continuous and binary data, power, sample size, multiple
testing, variability, confounding, interaction, and reliability.
The current part 2 of this title reviews methods for handling
missing data, manipulated data, multiple confounders, predictions
beyond observation, uncertainty of diagnostic tests, and the
problems of outliers. Also robust tests, non-linear modeling ,
goodness of fit testing, Bhatacharya models, item response
modeling, superiority testing, variability testing, binary
partitioning for CART (classification and regression tree) methods,
meta-analysis, and simple tests for incident analysis and
unexpected observations at the workplace and reviewed. Each test
method is reported together with (1) a data example from practice,
(2) all steps to be taken using a scientific pocket calculator, and
(3) the main results and their interpretation. Although several of
the described methods can also be carried out with the help of
statistical software, the latter procedure will be considerably
slower. Both part 1 and 2 of this title consist of a minimum of
text and this will enhance the process of mastering the methods.
Yet the authors recommend that for a better understanding of the
test procedures the books be used together with the same authors'
textbook "Statistics Applied to Clinical Studies" 5th edition
edited 2012, by Springer Dordrecht Netherlands. More complex data
files like data files with multiple treatment modalities or
multiple predictor variables can not be analyzed with a pocket
calculator. We recommend that the small books "SPSS for starters",
Part 1 and 2 (Springer, Dordrecht, 2010, and 2012) from the same
authors be used as a complementary help for the readers' benefit.
