   Hello there,
   welcome to yabyab
   wrong category - should be under psychology
   
   The purpose of stats in psychology is to give you a scope and better understanding of how well an experiment went etc.
   Numbers and facts give you a view of how effective something was and this enbales you to create quantitative data where you can find correlations as well as relationships and differences.
