SUMMARY:Mean Business: A Hands-on Guide to Group Comparison
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we aim to provide a practical introduction t
 o\nstatistical methods used for comparing group means\, including various\
 ntypes of t-tests\, analysis of variance (ANOVA)\, and post-hoc analysis\n
 techniques. Participants will learn when and how to apply independent\nand
  paired t-tests\, interpret ANOVA results\, and choose appropriate\npost-h
 oc tests to explore significant findings. Through examples and\nhands-on e
 xercises\, attendees will gain confidence in selecting and\nexecuting the 
 suitable statistical tests for their data.
