Glossary

Are you puzzled by strange statistical terms or abbreviations? Are you looking for a statistical dictionary that explains these statistical terms in plain English? You’re at the right place! Jim’s Statistics Glossary lists and explains the most commonly used terms in statistics. This is the best place for those learning statistics to start and familiarize themselves with statistical jargon. If you would like for me to explain something that is not listed here, please contact me.
