At tendees will learn the why and how of the scientific method and how to view the world with a statistician’s eyes. Also attendees will lear n the possibilities and limitations of research questions and hypothes is development, how to interpret statistical findings with p-values, e ffect sizes, and confidence intervals.\nWhy Should You Attend:\nDo you become tongue tied when explaining the meaning of a p-value? Would yo u like to know why the null hypothesis is so important to research? Wh y don’t studies prove anything? Are your pretty sure about what you want to say in plain English, but you’re not sure how to say it stat istically?\nThis webinar will briefly review the history of scientific method. We will explore the steps involved in developing a research q uestion that can be tested with statistical hypotheses. Examples of re search questions and hypotheses that can and cannot be tested will be presented. A brief lesson in statistical theory will explain why we do n’t prove anything in research, we can only make really, really, goo d guesses…providing we look at the problem the right way. We will al so discuss three ways of interpretation that in combination can be use d for better decision making, namely, p-values, effect sizes, and conf idence intervals.\n\nLearning Objective:\nAt the end of the webinar, p articipants will have a more thorough understanding of using the tenan ts and tools of scientific method to align their studies to obtain val id and reliable results.\n\nAreas Covered in the Webinar:\n\nBrief his tory of the scientific method\nExamples of when scientific methods is useful, and when it is not are not.\n5 steps for hypothesis testing:\n Formulation of research questions and statistical hypotheses to explai n and/or test phenomena.\nSpecify the statistical hypotheses\nChoice o f an appropriate test-statistic\nCompute probability and determine if results are significant\nProperly state conclusions and make inference s based on the test results\n\n\nWhy p-values are not enough. A review of effect sized and confidence intervals.\nSuggestions for the best t ests to use to address specific types research, and how to structure t he study research questions accordingly:\nTests of mean differences\nT ests of correlation/association\n\n\nWho Will Benefit:\n\nResearchers\ nPrincipal Investigators\nCoordinators\nIndustry Sponsors\nIRB members \n\n\n\n\nFor more information visit https://medtechiq.ning.com/events /hypothesis-testing-p-values-and-inference-when-thinking-like-a DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211110T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211110T130000 CATEGORIES:webinar LOCATION:online WEBSITE:https://www.complianceonline.com/hypothesis-testing-p-values-a nd-inference-research-questions-formulation-webinar-training-703552-pr dw?channel=MedTech%20I.Q URL:https://www.complianceonline.com/hypothesis-testing-p-values-and-i nference-research-questions-formulation-webinar-training-703552-prdw?c hannel=MedTech%20I.Q CONTACT:8887172436 ORGANIZER;CN=ComplianceOnline:https://medtechiq.ning.com/profile/Refer ral512 ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg":https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0 /file/get/9762276087?profile=original ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Complianc eOnline:https://medtechiq.ning.com/profile/Referral512 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
