Studies on weak associations - or small effects - often produce contradictory results which confuse the public. In this book, numerous contributions and illustrated examples show the effects of this problem, and sets out how future research should be approached in order to minimize the problems, thus producing clear results of significance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-01-09\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9783642804656\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642804656\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-80463-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 134\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44352475431052,"sku":"9783642804656","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642804656.jpg?v=1755115931","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783642804656","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
