⚠️ Bias in research = systematic error

Common types:
• Selection bias
• Response bias
• Recall bias
Bias distorts results control it!

📊 Confidence Interval (CI) = range where the true value likely falls

Example: 95% CI → you’re 95% confident the value lies in that range

📏 Effect Size shows how strong a relationship or difference is not just if it exists.

Big difference ≠ always meaningful

📉 p-value = probability your result is due to chance

✔ p < 0.05 → significant
✔ p > 0.05 → not significant
Don’t just report it understand it!

📊 Types of T-Tests

🔹 Independent T-Test → compares 2 different groups
🔹 Paired T-Test → compares same group (before vs after)
Choose wisely — it affects your results!
