Abstract
One of the main concerns of this text has been to define how we make inferences from samples to populations. This is also one of the main concerns of researchers, since in most cases they must make decisions about population parameters on the basis of sample statistics. Our approach has been to use the logic of statistical inference, which begins with the creation of a null hypothesis. Importantly, the logic of statistical inference we have reviewed so far is concerned primarily with the decision as to whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. This means in practice that we have relied on a logic that allows us to make a statement about where the population parameter is not.
