Markus Neuhäuser, Professor of Statistics, RheinAhrCampus, Koblenz University of Applied Sciences, Graeme D. Ruxton, Professor of Biology, School of Biology, University of St Andrews Professor Markus Neuhäuser graduated with a doctorate from the Faculty of Mathematics of the Technical University of Munich (Germany). He was then postdoctoral fellow in Mathematics at universities in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, among them the Georg-August-University Goettingen (Germany) and the University of Vienna (Austria). He is currently a Professor of Statistics at the Koblenz University of Applied Sciences, Germany. His research interests focus on group and representation theoretic aspects of harmonic analysis with applications in the construction of efficient networks and time-frequency analysis with applications in many disciplines of the natural sciences; among them the most prominent is signal processing. Other research interests include combinatorics and number theory. Professor Graeme Ruxton FRSE is a zoologist known for his research into behavioural ecology and evolutionary ecology. Ruxton received his PhD in Statistics and Modelling Science in 1992 from the University of Strathclyde. His studies focus on the evolutionary pressures on aggregation by animals, and predator-prey aspects of sensory ecology. He researched visual communication in animals at the University of Glasgow, where he was professor of theoretical ecology. In 2013 he became professor at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. Ruxton has published numerous papers on antipredator adaptations, along with contributions to textbooks. In 2012 Ruxton was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.

Klappentext

This book offers advice on the statistical analysis of small data sets (which are often used for ethical, financial, or practical reasons) for various designs and levels of measurement, helping researchers to analyse such data sets, but also to evaluate and interpret others' analyses.
