Abstract:
|
What makes statistical reporting "excellent"? How much excellent statistical reporting is out there? The goals of statistics and reporting can clash. How can statisticians best satisfy the goals of reporting, and how can reporters best satisfy statistical goals (when they desire to do so)? We discuss in the context of examples.
