  statisticum: Applied Nonparametric Statistical Methods Nigel Smeeton, Neil Spencer, Peter Sprent, 2025-03-31 Nonparametric statistical methods minimize the number of assumptions that need to be made about the distribution of data being analysed, unlike classical parametric methods. As such, they are an essential part of a statistician’s armoury, and this book is an essential resource in their application. Starting from the basics of statistics, it takes the reader through the main nonparametric approaches with an emphasis on carefully explained examples backed up by use of the R programming language. Key features of this fully revised and extended fifth edition include the following: An introductory chapter that provides a gentle introduction to the basics of statistics, including types of data, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals and ethical issues An R package containing functions that have been written for the examples in the text and the exercises Summary bullet points at the end of each section to enable the reader to locate important principles quickly A case study from medical research to demonstrate nonparametric approaches to the data analysis Examples fully integrated into the text, drawn from published research on contemporary issues, with more detail given in their explanation Extensive exercises along with complete solutions that allow the reader to test their understanding of the material Articles used in the examples and exercises carefully chosen to enable readers to identify up-to-date literature in their field for research, publications and teaching material Numerous historical references throughout the text, from which to explore the origins of nonparametric methods Applied Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Fifth Edition, is a comprehensive course text in nonparametric techniques suitable for undergraduate students of mathematics and statistics. It assumes only basic previous experience of statistics, and with algebra kept to a minimum, it is also ideal for quantitative methods modules delivered to undergraduate or postgraduate students in science, business and health service training. It is an invaluable resource for researchers, medical practitioners, business managers, research and development staff, and others needing to interpret quantitative information. Suitable for self-directed learning in continuing professional development, it also acts as a handy accessible reference manual.
  statisticum: Impact of Visual Simulations in Statistics Glena Iten, 2014-12-01 Glena Iten investigates the impact of interactive visual simulations on conceptual understanding of statistical principles. Overall, all students were able to increase their knowledge by working with visual simulations, whereas students who could manipulate statistical graphs in the simulation on their own were significantly faster. Currently, interactive learning tools explaining statistical concepts are widely spread, but only few are tested. Well-structured interactive learning programs with visual simulations have in the past been shown to be effective. By applying effective instructional design principles, an online tutorial where students could either manipulate or only observe changes in the visual simulations, was developed. Practical implications and opportunities for further investigations in this research project are discussed.
  statisticum: The Transformation of Religious Orders in Central and Eastern Europe Stefania Palmisano, Isabelle Jonveaux, Marcin Jewdokimow, 2021-05-09 The first volume to explore various facets of contemporary change in consecrated religious life in selected Central and Eastern European countries, this book presents a series of studies of Catholic and Orthodox monasticism. With attention to changes in the economy, everyday life, organisation and social presence of monastic orders, contributors shed light on the impact of 20th and 21st century social and cultural processes – such as communism and its collapse or the growth of new communication technologies – on life in the cloister. Bringing together research from various locations in Central and Eastern Europe, it will appeal to scholars and students of sociology, religious studies and theology, with interests in religious orders and transformations of religious life from a social perspective.
  statisticum: Statistical Theory of Signal Detection Carl W. Helstrom, 2013-10-22 Statistical Theory of Signal Detection, Second Edition provides an elementary introduction to the theory of statistical testing of hypotheses that is related to the detection of signals in radar and communications technology. This book presents a comprehensive survey of digital communication systems. Organized into 11 chapters, this edition begins with an overview of the theory of signal detection and the typical detection problem. This text then examines the goals of the detection system, which are defined through an analogy with the testing of statistical hypotheses. Other chapters consider the noise fluctuations in terms of probability distributions whereby the statistical information is used to design a receiver that attains the maximum rate of successful detections in a long series of trials. This book discusses as well the criteria of success and failure in statistical situations. The final chapter deals with the types of stochastic signals. This book is a valuable resource for mathematicians and engineers.
  statisticum: Philosophy in Statistics 陈立功 / Chen Ligong, 2025-05-20 This book revisits the history of statistics and, by focusing on the critical turning point across the 1920s and 1930s, redraws the proper trajectory of its development. It expands the theoretical and algorithmic foundations of statistics from the special case of the “normal distribution–arithmetic mean (Amean)” to the more general framework of “centralized distribution–convex self-weighted mean (Cmean),” thereby providing a philosophical, historical and algorithmic foundation for reconstructing the discipline. Grounded in fundamental principles of epistemology, the book systematically introduces new statistical ideas and methods, achieving key breakthroughs and innovations in the following areas: 1) The construction of a cognitive framework driven by a both rigorous and powerful four-dimensional logic: abstraction, induction, deduction, and dialectics; 2) The establishment of a new basic conceptual system for statistics; 3) The proposal of “self-weighting” and “convex self-weighted mean, or simplified to Cmean” algorithms for continuous variables without distinguishing normal and skewed, thereby achieving expectation estimate of a distribution with a centralized location in a unified framework; 4) The development of a method for testing parameter differences, independent of normalization and normality assumptions; 5) The reconstruction of piecewise regression methods through a weighted approach that combines global modeling with a generalized trichotomy, thus avoiding overfitting and enhancing model interpretability and generalizability. The central theme of the book is clear: philosophical thinking is not only the foundational source of statistics but also the key force driving its methodological innovation and paradigm shift. The above five aspects with ground breakingthroughs developed in this book is heralding a new era in statistical science. To assist readers in understanding and applying the proposed ideas and algorithms, the author provides essential SAS code in the appendix, allowing readers to test the statistical performance of the methods with their own data. As a specialized work on statistics, it does not delve into highly abstract mathematical theory. Instead, it uses a philosophy style narrative that aligns closely with natural human language and relies on minimal mathematical skills, making it accessible to anyone with a high school education or above. Therefore, this book is intended for professionals engaged in education, research, and application in the field of statistics, as well as those junior to senior researchers across all disciplines. In particular, those aspiring to make achievements in statistical methodology will find this book a rich source of insight and inspiration. Language Note: Since the author's English is not very strong, this book was originally written in his native language (Chinese), then translated into English using Google Translate, and edited and proofread carefully by comparing the two versions paragraph by paragraph to make sure the English translation is understandable. All the texts, tables, figures, and formulas are presented in both languages wherever appropriate. Readers who understand either English or Chinese — or both — can fully engage with the content. The author has chosen to preserve the original bilingual format to maintain the richness and precision of the ideas conveyed. If there are any uncertainties in the English text, readers are encouraged to refer to the original Chinese version.

  statisticum: Understanding the Consecrated Life in Canada Jason Zuidema, 2015-12-21 The story of the consecrated life in Canada since the 1960s should be about much more than numerical decline. Although the falling numbers are significant among Catholic religious in communities that pre-date Vatican II, many communities continue to show stability and even growth. This book provides nuance to that story by adding detailed portraits of movements, communities and institutions. In four parts, this book presents essays from the leading scholars on religious life in Canada that seek to address the state of religious communities dedicated to religious virtuosity normally characterized by formal promises of chastity, poverty, and obedience. The essays examine a broad range of topics related to the general state of consecrated (or “religious” or “monastic”) life in contemporary Canadian Christian and Buddhist traditions. In the first section, the contributors trace the demographics and definitions of religious life in Canada. The second section examines Canadian developments in Catholic religious life during the Vatican II and the post-Vatican II eras. A third section explores trends in contemporary Canadian religious life, while the fourth section describes the consecrated life in other Canadian religious traditions.
  statisticum: Economic Interpretations of England’s State Formation and Its Management to 1850 Gordon Holmes, 2024-10-24 The book is divided into two sections. The first half provides a historiography of the literature on state formation from antiquity to the present day. In the second, Gordon identifies a new theme using the methodologies of economic history, the history of economic thought, and the history of ideas. His interdisciplinary approach demonstrates that the process of state formation is best understood through the prism of science, economy, and culture. The narrative highlights significant events and institutions as markers of change in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern era. The core of the book focuses on England’s economic culture and its impact on state management. University elites in science and Aristotle’s philosophy educated literate and numerate professionals for the Royal court. They became indispensable for the ever-growing complexity of governing. England was unique because it embraced statistical thinking and quantitative reasoning at the heart of the English State.

  statisticum: Qualitative Mathematics for the Social Sciences Lee Rudolph, 2013-01-03 In this book Lee Rudolph brings together international contributors who combine psychological and mathematical perspectives to analyse how qualitative mathematics can be used to create models of social and psychological processes. Bridging the gap between the fields with an imaginative and stimulating collection of contributed chapters, the volume updates the current research on the subject, which until now has been rather limited, focussing largely on the use of statistics. Qualitative Mathematics for the Social Sciences contains a variety of useful illustrative figures, introducing readers from the social sciences to the rich contribution that modern mathematics has made to our knowledge of logic, structures, and dynamic systems. A beguiling array of conceptual systems, topological models and fractals are discussed which transcend the application of statistics, and bring a fresh perspective to the study of social representations. The wide selection of qualitative mathematical methodologies discussed in this volume will be hugely valuable to higher-level undergraduate and postgraduate students of psychology, sociology and mathematics. It will also be useful for researchers, academics and professionals from the social sciences who want a firmer grasp on the use of qualitative mathematics.

  statisticum: Bayesians Versus Frequentists Jordi Vallverdú, 2015-11-06 This book analyzes the origins of statistical thinking as well as its related philosophical questions, such as causality, determinism or chance. Bayesian and frequentist approaches are subjected to a historical, cognitive and epistemological analysis, making it possible to not only compare the two competing theories, but to also find a potential solution. The work pursues a naturalistic approach, proceeding from the existence of numerosity in natural environments to the existence of contemporary formulas and methodologies to heuristic pragmatism, a concept introduced in the book’s final section. This monograph will be of interest to philosophers and historians of science and students in related fields. Despite the mathematical nature of the topic, no statistical background is required, making the book a valuable read for anyone interested in the history of statistics and human cognition.
  statisticum: Math for Scientists Natasha Maurits, Branislava Ćurčić-Blake, 2023-11-10 This book reviews math topics relevant to non-mathematics students and scientists, but which they may not have seen or studied for a while. These math issues can range from reading mathematical symbols, to using complex numbers, dealing with equations involved in calculating medication equivalents, the General Linear Model (GLM) used in e.g. neuroimaging analysis, finding the minimum of a function, independent component analysis, or filtering approaches. Almost every student or scientist, will at some point run into mathematical formulas or ideas in scientific papers that may be hard to understand, given that formal math education may be some years ago. In this book we will explain the theory behind many of these mathematical ideas and expressions and provide readers with the tools to better understand them. We will revisit high school mathematics and extend and relate this to the mathematics you need to understand the math you may encounter in the course of your research. This book will help you understand the math and formulas in the scientific papers you read. To achieve this goal, each chapter mixes theory with practical pen-and-paper exercises such that you (re)gain experience with solving math problems yourself. Mnemonics will be taught whenever possible. To clarify the math and help readers apply it, each chapter provides real-world and scientific examples. In this new edition, two new chapters covering statistics and differential equations have been added, which have been workshopped in the 'authors' popular lecture series in order to maximize the benefit for readers.

  statisticum: Bernoulli's Fallacy Aubrey Clayton, 2021-08-03 There is a logical flaw in the statistical methods used across experimental science. This fault is not a minor academic quibble: it underlies a reproducibility crisis now threatening entire disciplines. In an increasingly statistics-reliant society, this same deeply rooted error shapes decisions in medicine, law, and public policy with profound consequences. The foundation of the problem is a misunderstanding of probability and its role in making inferences from observations. Aubrey Clayton traces the history of how statistics went astray, beginning with the groundbreaking work of the seventeenth-century mathematician Jacob Bernoulli and winding through gambling, astronomy, and genetics. Clayton recounts the feuds among rival schools of statistics, exploring the surprisingly human problems that gave rise to the discipline and the all-too-human shortcomings that derailed it. He highlights how influential nineteenth- and twentieth-century figures developed a statistical methodology they claimed was purely objective in order to silence critics of their political agendas, including eugenics. Clayton provides a clear account of the mathematics and logic of probability, conveying complex concepts accessibly for readers interested in the statistical methods that frame our understanding of the world. He contends that we need to take a Bayesian approach—that is, to incorporate prior knowledge when reasoning with incomplete information—in order to resolve the crisis. Ranging across math, philosophy, and culture, Bernoulli’s Fallacy explains why something has gone wrong with how we use data—and how to fix it.

  statisticum: Modern Carmelite nuns and contemplative identities Brian Heffernan, 2024-05-21 Discalced Carmelite convents are among the most influential wellsprings of female spirituality in the Catholic tradition, as the names of Teresa of Avila, Therese of Lisieux and Edith Stein attest. Behind these ‘great Carmelites’ stood communities of women who developed discourses on their relationship with God and their identity as a spiritual elite in the church and society. This book looks at these discourses as formulated by Carmelites in the Netherlands, from their arrival there in 1872 up to the recent past, providing an in-depth case study of the spiritualities of modern women contemplatives. The female religious life was a transnational phenomenon, and the book draws on sources and scholarship in English, Dutch, French and German to provide insights on gendered spirituality, memory and the post-conciliar renewal of the religious life.
  statisticum: House Churches in Post-Communist Europe Randy Hacker, 2023-02-10 This is an exploration of house churches, especially in Poland. The book begins with a review of literature about the “global house church movement” and continues with an article on the early Christian transition from house churches to purpose-built buildings for churches. Next is an article regarding the concept of “sacred space” in relation to house churches. The first half concludes with a chapter on methodology of research for a qualitative interview approach to studying house churches. The thesis then presents a theological method for using the qualitative interviews to develop ecclesiology. Sixteen interviews from thirteen house churches are presented. The thesis continues the theological method by attempting to answer the question “why is it going on” and presents a thematic analysis from the qualitative interviews that includes input from sociological research done in Poland. The thesis concludes by using scriptural and academic sources in conversation with house church interviews from the interviews and global house church literature to present four primary conclusions in a practical-prophetic ecclesiology.
