Fay and Brittain present statistical hypothesis testing and
compatible confidence intervals, focusing on application and proper
interpretation. The emphasis is on equipping applied statisticians
with enough tools - and advice on choosing among them - to find
reasonable methods for almost any problem and enough theory to
tackle new problems by modifying existing methods. After covering
the basic mathematical theory and scientific principles, tests and
confidence intervals are developed for specific types of data.
Essential methods for applications are covered, such as general
procedures for creating tests (e.g., likelihood ratio, bootstrap,
permutation, testing from models), adjustments for multiple
testing, clustering, stratification, causality, censoring, missing
data, group sequential tests, and non-inferiority tests. New
methods developed by the authors are included throughout, such as
melded confidence intervals for comparing two samples and
confidence intervals associated with Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney tests
and Kaplan-Meier estimates. Examples, exercises, and the R package
asht support practical use.
