Have your friend take a look at Geoff Cumming's "Understanding the New Statistics"; see: http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-The-New-Statistics-Meta-Analysis/dp/041587968X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1341572846&sr=8-1&keywords=new+statistics A Psycinfo search on Geoff Cumming will show his publication over the past decade or so that focus on CI and their interpretation. -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
