An introduction to the design, analysis, and interpretation of statistical studies. Topics include representations for univariate and bivariate data distributions; designed methods for data collection and the role of randomness in statistical studies; probability and statistical distributions; statistical estimation, and statistical significance. Emphasis will be on the development of conceptual understanding and interpretation of results through simulation rather than a theoretical development. Statistical software will be utilized in the analysis of data in the development of statistical and probabilistic concepts.
