Interaction effect of education and ideology on concern about sea level rise. In statistics, an interaction may arise when considering the relationship among three or more variables, and describes a situation in which the effect of one causal variable on an outcome depends on the state of a second causal variable (that is, when effects of the two causes are not additive).
Designed experiments with full factorial design (left), response surface with second-degree polynomial (right) In statistics, a full factorial experiment is an experiment whose design consists of two or more factors, each with discrete possible values or "levels", and whose experimental units take on all possible combinations of these levels across all such factors.
Statistical literacy is the ability to understand and reason with statistics and data. The abilities to understand and reason with data, or arguments that use data, are necessary for citizens to understand material presented in publications such as newspapers, television, and the Internet.

Between 2007 and 2012 he divided his work [16] between the Cambridge Statistical Laboratory (three-fifths) and the Medical Research Council Biostatistics Unit (two-fifths). [17] He left the MRC in March 2012 [18] and worked full-time at the Statistical Laboratory as the Winton Professor of the Public Understanding of Risk until his retirement ...
Exploratory data analysis, robust statistics, nonparametric statistics, and the development of statistical programming languages facilitated statisticians' work on scientific and engineering problems. Such problems included the fabrication of semiconductors and the understanding of communications networks, which concerned Bell Labs.
In probability theory and information theory, the interaction information is a generalization of the mutual information for more than two variables. There are many names for interaction information, including amount of information, [1] information correlation, [2] co-information, [3] and simply mutual information. [4]
The first chapter of Bapat's book reviews the linear algebra used by Bailey (or the advanced books below). Bailey's exercises and discussion of randomization both emphasize statistical concepts (rather than algebraic computations). Bailey, R. A. (2008). Design of Comparative Experiments. Cambridge U. P.
