This document provides definitions and examples of key epidemiological and statistical concepts:
- It defines measures of central tendency like mean, median, and mode for different scale of measurements.
- It describes different study designs like cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies.
- It provides examples of statistical tests and calculations including p-values, prevalence, positive predictive value, sensitivity and specificity.
- It defines types of variables as independent and dependent and examples of scales of measurement.
- It lists levels of agreement for kappa coefficient and examples of blinded and non-blinded study designs.
