Statistical Summary and Article Critique

Your paper should in 500- 600 words 1) summarize the statistical methods that the researchers used in their article and 2) evaluate those statistical methods. Were the techniques they picked (correlation, hypothesis testing, regression, for example) appropriate? What limits to this approach are there? Are there other techniques they could have used instead?

  • An evaluation of what the strength and weaknesses of the statistical approach the authors took. 
  • So from your perspective and understanding of the material from the course, why did the researchers use their approach? What is good about this approach? Are there limitations to this approach? Could have done something else instead? I'm looking for your informed opinion about the statistics in the paper (as if you have been taking a class in statistics) 
  • It's a little bit like a movie review. After summarizing what the movie is like, a review will address the quality of the movie-did it work? What was missing? Could something else better have been done instead?
