Welcome - Science & Plants for Schools

Introduction Welcome to the Handbook of Biological Statistics! This online textbook evolved from a set of notes for my Biological Data Analysis class at the University of Delaware. My main goal in that class is to teach biology students how to choose the appropriate statistical test for a particular experiment, then apply that test and interpret the results. You may navigate through these pages using the "Previous topic" and "Next topic" links at the top of each page, or you may skip from topic to topic using the links on the left sidebar. I have provided a spreadsheet to perform almost every statistical test. I've also linked to a web page for each test wherever possible. There are instructions for performing each statistical test in SAS, as well. Printed version While this handbook is primarily designed for online use, you may find it convenient to print out some or all of the pages. You can also download a free pdf of the entire handbook and print it yourself. You may cite the printed version as:
