A Guide For Choosing The Most Common Statistical Tests

This document provides a guide for choosing common statistical tests based on five factors: whether the analysis is bivariate or multivariable, examining differences or correlations, and the type of variables and number of groups. It presents a table mapping these factors to appropriate statistical tests, including t-tests, ANOVA, regression, and tests for survival analysis. The guide can help researchers identify the correct statistical analysis to use for their data based on the study design and variable types.
