Abstract:

Statistical analysis is a topic of interest, relevance, and often discomfort, for many nursing researchers. In this talk, we will discuss the use of statistics in the nursing field, including an overview of statistics education for nurses, common study designs used in nursing research studies, and the types of statistical methods used and published in the nursing literature. We will describe the process of developing a new biostatistics consulting service center in a School of Nursing and discuss experiences had and lessons learned.
