Small Sample Size Solutions: A Guide for Applied Researchers and Practitioners: European Association of Methodology Series
Editat de Rens van de Schoot, Milica Miočevićen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 feb 2020
This essential book will enable social and behavioral science researchers to test their hypotheses even when the statistical model required for answering their research question is too complex for the sample sizes they can collect. The statistical models in the book range from the estimation of a population mean to models with latent variables and nested observations, and solutions include both classical and Bayesian methods. All proposed solutions are described in steps researchers can implement with their own data and are accompanied with annotated syntax in R.
The methods described in this book will be useful for researchers across the social and behavioral sciences, ranging from medical sciences and epidemiology to psychology, marketing, and economics.

List of Symbols
Part I: Bayesian solutions
1. Introduction to Bayesian statistics (Miočević, Levy, and van de Schoot)
