Quick Guide To Commonly Used Statistical Tests

This document provides a quick guide to commonly used statistical tests. It presents a decision tree to help determine which statistical test to use based on the type of data (continuous or categorical), whether there is a dependent variable, how many groups are being compared, and whether other assumptions are met. The guide outlines tests for relationships, differences, and correlations between two or more groups, including t-tests, ANOVA, regression, non-parametric tests, and chi-square tests. Commonly used post-hoc tests like Tukey and Bonferroni are also mentioned.
