When you\u2019re lost and frustrated, statistics only make you want to run in the OPPOSITE direction!\u00a0 If you\u2019re looking for the basic info to consider in your publication, here are a few starting points:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Use your methods section to tell the reader what you did and why.\u00a0 How did you identify confounders?\u00a0 What are they?\u00a0 How did you select your sample?\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 Who should this ideally represent?\u00a0 What analytic method did you choose?\u00a0 What assumptions were tested?<\/li>\n
  2. Everybody wants to know who is in your sample, and what the sample members look like.\u00a0 Any journal will inevitably be resistant to your manuscript if you don\u2019t tell them, for example, the demographic make up (age, gender, race, education level, etc), and tell them something about your main variables of interest (describe your explanatory\/independent\/predictor variables, then describe your outcome\/dependent\/criterion variables).<\/li>\n
  3. A table is meant to summarize more than one bit of information.\u00a0 In other words, don\u2019t include in a table what could more easily be stated in a sentence.\u00a0 Capitalize on the table structure to present, for example, comparable models, comparisons for demographic measures, or multiple analyses.\u00a0 Bring it together for the reader!<\/li>\n
  4. Don\u2019t forget the analytic assumptions.\u00a0 Nothing is worse than to have someone read your statistics section only to realize that you didn\u2019t consider (or make it evident that you did) the assumptions underlying your models.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t tell the reader what you did, we assume you didn\u2019t do it.<\/li>\n
  5. Results sections are usually for the presentation of your results, not your interpretations of the body of results.\u00a0 The discussion section is the discussion of the results, and the connections to the current literature (among other things).\u00a0 Let the results show the results, ideally in an objective fashion<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
