商品描述
Traditional approaches focused on significance tests have often been difficult for linguistics researchers to visualise. Statistics in Corpus Linguistics Research: A New Approach breaks significance tests down for researchers in corpus linguistics and linguistic analysis, promoting a visual approach to understanding the performance of tests with real data, and demonstrating how to derive new confidence intervals and tests.
This fully-revised second edition includes a brand-new chapter describing a novel extended 'MOVER' method to derive accurate confidence intervals for numerous properties. With sample datasets and easy-to-read visuals, this book focuses on practical issues, such as how to:
- pose meaningful research questions in terms of choice and constraint;
- employ confidence intervals correctly (including in graph plots);
- select a significance test (and interpret its results);
- construct confidence intervals for functions of independent proportions;
- measure the size of the effect of one variable on another or the similarity between two distributions; and
- evaluate whether the results of two experiments significantly differ.
Appropriate for anyone from the student just beginning their career to the seasoned researcher, this book is both a practical overview and valuable resource.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
傳統的重點檢定方法對於語言學研究者來說，往往難以視覺化。《語料庫語言學研究中的統計：新方法》為語料庫語言學和語言分析的研究者簡化了重點檢定，促進了一種視覺化的方法來理解真實數據中檢定的表現，並展示如何推導新的信賴區間和檢定。
這本全面修訂的第二版包含了一個全新的章節，描述了一種新穎的擴展「MOVER」方法，以推導多種特性的準確信賴區間。透過範例數據集和易於閱讀的視覺圖形，本書專注於實際問題，例如如何：
- 以選擇和約束的方式提出有意義的研究問題；
- 正確使用信賴區間（包括在圖表中）；
- 選擇一個重點檢定（並解釋其結果）；
- 為獨立比例的函數構建信賴區間；
- 測量一個變數對另一個變數的影響大小或兩個分佈之間的相似性；
- 評估兩個實驗的結果是否有顯著差異。
本書適合從剛開始職業生涯的學生到資深研究者，既是實用的概述，也是寶貴的資源。
