HLSC 345      Quantitative Analysis in the Health Sciences
This course focuses upon the skills required for the utilization of scientific findings in evidence-based care. The conceptual basis of descriptive and inferential statistics found in the properties of the normal distribution comprise the core of these skills. Using the normal distribution as a structure for understanding descriptive and inferential procedures, the course presents information necessary to the selection, computation and interpretation of basic statistics relevant to evidence-based care in the health sciences. Discussions of variables, measurement and tabular and graphic presentation of data precede the development of computation skills.
