Captions available

Dichotomous and continuous data are analysed with different statistical tests.

In practice

A study choosing its test according to the kind of outcome it actually measured.

A test mismatched to the data type is a methodological error an appraiser can spot without doing any arithmetic, which makes it worth checking first.
