Analysis of Statistical Procedures

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the analysis of statistical procedures, particularly using the analysis of variance model (ANOVA). The paper focuses on the use of ANOVA by Nicholas Bakalar in his study, "Patterns: Parkinson's Raises Risks of Depression in Relatives." The paper discusses why ANOVA was chosen as an appropriate method of statistical procedure analysis and looks at the benefits of using this method.

From the Paper:

"This study goes beyond showing the higher risks of family members. This disease now shows that it is detrimental not only to those afflicted by it, but also those surrounding them as well. It gives researchers the data necessary to take precautionary steps to help those individuals who may be at higher risk of exhibiting signs of depression and anxiety disorder. Now that researchers have statistical data showing exactly how much more at risk this specific population is, methods can be taken in order to ensure proper diagnosis, treatment, and precautionary analysis of individuals with immediate family members afflicted with the terror which is Parkinson's disease."
