Support Functions: Reframing Conventional Statistical Methods.
[Preprint]
Abstract
Conventional statistical inference is awkward, which has the consequence that it is difficult to explain and even difficult to use properly. The problem is not with its fundamental elements (confidence intervals and hypothesis tests), but instead with how they are packaged. Here support functions are offered as an alternative package, which very much improves real-world practice and provides conceptual clarity to the process of scientific inference.
