Statistical Guideline #2: Report Appropriate Reliability for your Sample, Measure, and Design

Suzanne C Segerstrom. Int J Behav Med. 2019 Oct.

Abstract

From the Editors: This is the second column from the Statistics Guru. The Statistics Guru will appear in every issue. In these columns, we briefly discuss appropriate ways to analyze and present data in the journal. As such, the Statistics Guru can be seen both as an editorial amuse bouche and a set of guidelines for reporting data in the International Journal of Behavioral Medicine. If you have ideas for a column, please email the Statistical Editor, Suzanne Segerstrom at segerstrom@uky.edu.

Keywords: Generalizability; Reliability; Statistical guidelines.
