Statistical tests (Part 1): Descriptive statistics.
This series of three articles has been designed to facilitate an understanding of some commonly used statistical terms encountered when reading research articles. In addition, it is hoped that the nurse researcher who has access to a personal computer containing basic statistical software will gain some insight into which statistical tests to use and in what circumstances. The articles do not attempt to provide any understanding of the mathematics of the statistical tests employed.
