Abstract:
|
This chapter explains why we think statistical methodology matters so much to the HCI community and why we should attempt to improve it. It introduces some flaws in the well-accepted methodology of Null Hypothesis Significance Testing and briefly introduces some alternatives. Throughout the book we aim to critically evaluate current practices in HCI and support a less rigid, procedural view of statistics in favour of "fair statistical communication". Each chapter provides scholars and practitioners with the methods and tools to do so.
