I've previously found the document "Reporting Statistics in Psychology" highly useful, and so I made a presentation for a stats course that I think is worth sharing! My own guide, a supplement of sorts, goes into a slightly broader variety of topics than the previous link, and mine also lists a 'bottom-line' approach that I think will be helpful to the people who just want to know what they should do!
Mine is called "A practical guide to Psych Stats," and I've made a freely available, freely downloadable PDF of that presentation here.
This is probably going to be useful to you if any of the following are true:
Early-career/inexperienced students:
- You've been unsure which test is appropriate for a certain dataset
- You've struggled to understand psych stats from a conceptual perspective
- You've struggled to write up statistical results in APA style
- You've wished there was an easier-to-use stats program
- You've wished there was a free stats program that you can run on your own computer
- You've thought that null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) procedures didn't make sense
- You think that the APA's reporting standards for statistical tests aren't stringent enough
- You're not sure how to interpret standardized measures of effect size
- You want to know a little bit more about Bayesian statistics
- You're not sure how to interpret your Bayesian statistics
- You're looking for a free/better/more user-friendly/more widely-compatible stats program to run on your own computer
- You're looking for a quick, easy, free, relatively brief resource to guide your students through the morass that is psych stats
- Bonus: links are embedded! :D
However, for best effect, you must download the PDF, as the online preview version may randomly insert characters that will break the links :(
