Statistics, hands-on.
Interactive tools to explore foundational statistical concepts – visual, intuitive, and grounded in business examples.
Learning modules
Probability
Roll dice, flip coins, spin roulette – and watch live how relative frequencies approach the true probability. Includes a gambler's-fallacy visualisation.
Probability
From medical testing to Gigerenzer-style frequency formats: why a 99%-accurate test often still produces mostly false positives – and how a confirmation test fixes that.
Probability
Normal, binomial, Poisson, t, chi² – move the parameters and watch density and distribution function react.
Inference
Draw samples and observe how often the confidence interval contains the true mean.
Inference
Visualise the null and alternative distributions, and interactively explore the critical region and the p-value.
Study design
Vary effect size, sample size, and significance level and read off the statistical power.
Foundations
Pick any underlying distribution and watch how the sampling distribution of the mean converges to the normal as n grows.
Relationships
Place or drag data points and watch the regression line and residuals update in real time.
Inference
When does a significant p-value point to a real effect? Connect prior probability, power, α, and bias.
Inference
Monte Carlo simulation after Rasch, Kubinger & Moder: how well do Student's t, Welch, Mann-Whitney, Yuen, and a permutation test hold the nominal α – and how much does their power differ?
Inference
Paste a CSV or pick a sample dataset and immediately compare Welch's t, Student's t, Mann-Whitney U, and Yuen's t with confidence intervals, effect sizes, and diagnostic plots.
Inference
Explore Cohen's d, r, odds ratios, overlap, and the common language effect size interactively – with Cohen's benchmarks set against the effects actually observed in psychology.
