Descriptive/Analytical:
Observational / Experimental
Retrospective/Prospective
Descriptive/Analytical (According to their purposes)
O Datas are tried to be collected, in order to identify individuals in
descriptive researches and to determine cause - effect relationships
in analytical researches. In descriptive research, answers to
questions of ”who“, “where“ and ”when” are sought. In analytical
research answers to the question ”why“ is sought. Hypotheses are
established based on data obtained from descriptive research
O Testing of these hypotheses and investigating whether there is a
relationship between the suspected etiological cause and the
disease is performed through analytical research.
Observational/Experimental (How they are made)
p is between ”0 to 1’’.
Definition p; while the H0 hypothesis is true, it
is the probability of accidental rejection.
It allows us to decide whether the observed
difference depends on chance.
It not the possibility to be true of H0 hypothesis
- Levels smaller than limit indicate that the null
hypothesis is not correct.
Statistical decision and ‘’p’’ probability

Insufficient Number BiAS : Due to lack of sample, the result is not reliable.
67% of our patients were discharged with cure... (Only 2 out of 3 patients!!!)
Popularity BiAS : Some unique operations may misrepresent the frequency of
specific results...
Unfortunately, 60% of our causes of death were firearm (According to the forensic autopsy
results!)
Centripetal Bias : Recognition of certain experts or institutions may lead to case
condensation and assessment stereotyping.
Turkey's most commonly found in schizophrenia district is Bakirkoy district!!!
Referral Filter Bias : The concentration of very severe cases in certain foci upon the
recommendation of the patients who could be treated...
He healed my pimples instantly, you must go to him for your chest pains...
Diagnostic Access Bias: Economic, geographical, etc. reasons can make access to
healthy diagnostic facilities difficult..
Who will go to the Cancer hospital?! it can be expensive, we can show our dispenser..
Diagnostic Suspicion Bias: Preliminary assumptions about case characteristics are
misleading in diagnosis...
The suspected disease is mostly found in South America, yours is something simpler...
ADMISSION RATE BIAS(Berkson Bias) : In some diseases, patients are in a state
of secondary trait, and lead to false frequency evaluations..
The frequency of depression in children aged 8-12 years was found to be higher than
expected...(We searched the children's clinic in our hospital so that we could find easy
cases.!!)
PREVALANCE- INCIDENCE BiAS (Neyman Bias) : Diagnosis errors can be made in
early cases due to monitoring error.” The Start Point Bias also has a similar
concept.
In our patients treated with this method, we have achieved remarkable success in
survival follow-up!!!(We've only been watching for 15 days...)
METHODOLOGICAL SELECTION BIAS: Not taking into account the risks brought
by the method of different treatment methods applied to the same disease.
5-year survival in medical approach is 80%, but 60% in surgery..(The risk of surgery is so
high that 30% of operated cases are lost in post-op intensive care!!!)
SPECIAL CLUSTER BIAS ( Membership - Healty Worker – Volunteer - Migrator
Bias ) :Study cases which have common characteristics that can differentiate the
result
The atmosphere conditions of this factory are not as horrible as it is shown at all1%
morbidity was observed...(60% of workers retired because of disability in 2 years..)
“MANEUVER” PERIOD(Process) BiAS TYPES
Withdrawall BiAS : Excessive number of missing cases -sometimes due to
insufficient attention- in follow-up studies -. ....
Phone and ask their status, if they are not at home, we count them as lost?!!
Missing Data BiASI : Uncertainty of the status of unhandled or unprocessed
data..
Type «130/75» in all of the «normal« written places....
Compliance BiASI : When people with certain types of features shows
incompatibility to the study, both the losses increase and the remaining
ones become a special cluster type.
This medicine makes a lot of headaches over the age of 65, almost all such cases
have left the study , thankfully young people appeared durable !!
Bogus Control BiASI : Transfer of Incompatible «Experiment Cluster» to
«Control Cluster»....
These elderly people with headaches...we let them stop using the drug and make
plasebo , at least we do not lose the cases!!!
DATA OBTAINMENT,MEASUREMENT STAGE
(Information) BiAS
ROUGH-BAD MEASUREMENT BiASI : Sloppy readings, rough roundings,
unadjusted tools (instrument bias) , insufficient staff taking measurements,
etc..
The nurse Ayşe should measure blood pressure.... she doesn't hear well but it doesn’t
matter ??
EXAMINATION TENSION–White coat (Apprehension Bias) BiAS : It should be
kept in mind that just living the examination environment can make
physiological and psychological changes..
That woman's got allergy to doctors, I guess, her blood pressure rises as she sees me!!.
UNACCEPTABILITY BiAS : Data obtained by methods that disturbs, hurts or
enters private life changes..
Aylin's test scores are high in everyone's test... She also has lots of problems these
days , Does she affects patients by yelling???
EXPECTATION BiAS: Recording of the Observer unintentionally by rounding in
the direction of his / her job..
Slightly higher than 170 mmHg.... 3-5mmHg does not matter much?!! Let's write 170,
we made so much effort for this drug!!
RECALL BiAS : Asking the existence of an investigative
factor in a way that causes a false recall...
You’ve surely had measles in your childhood.?!!
FAMILY INFORMATION BiAS : Mistakes when getting
information not from the case but from his/her relatives-
Did your son start smoking after college?
- Later, my son is a very well-mannered person!!
(The boy actually smokes 1 pack a day since he went to
secondary school!!)
IN ATTENTION BiAS : Some cases, especially their
psychological state, may change when they know they are
under observation...
Mr.Mehmet says” You treat me like a guinea pig” and his
depression is increasing rather than decreasing!!
BiAS AT THE EVALUATION-ANALYSIS STAGE
POST-HOC SIGNIFICANCE BIAS: Determination of alpha level after statistical
results...
Look,here is also p =0.06...., if we think α = 0.10, it will be significant!!??
RESULT SELECTION (Looking for the pony) BİAS : Without at first making
assumptions, making possible all the comparisons and bringing forward some
meaningful results..
50 mg dose set is also significant in terms of cholesterol.. let's not give point to the results of
other doses
TIDYING UP BİAS : After the statistical results are obtained , observing excess and
uncertainty in data, exclusion and re-evalution ..
Here is also p =0.06....Because of the fat man in the control group whose cholesterol level is
405. It’s an extreme value , it expands the variance, let’s exclude it, you’ll see , it will be
significant.
CHANGING DEFINITION LIMITS OF CLUSTER BIAS: After the statistical results are
obtained, changing the definition of some clusters and re-evaluating....
They've compared people over the age of 70 to those below, but it isn’t significant when we
do so, of course this is not USA, we should compare people over the age of 65 to those below
so it can be significant.
PUBLICATION BIAS
AVOIDING PUBLISHING RESULTS WHICH ARE NOT
SIGNIFICANT (PUBLICATION BIAS):
When zero assumption is found valid , the idea that the result
will not attract attention , the anxiety to contradict with the
results that found significant before
No, no..it’s not significant.. We are unable to show a so researched
and known feature, let’s never try to publish, anyway nobody accepts
for publication..
(How many people didn't attempt to publish it, so that significant
result remained as a false information!!)
REMOVAL OF ERRORS AND PROVIDING VALIDITY
POPULATION SAMPLE
Advantages and disadvantages of sampling:
- Sampling technique saves time, money, staff and
materials by freeing up an investigation from a large and
unnecessary information burden.
-In addition to the difficulty of full-count control, the study
also loses its actuality.
- Sampling is a highly risky method and it is very
inconvenient to use it indiscriminately.
The sample group obtained at the end of a sampling must
have the ability to represent and qualification :

METHODS
If multiple variables are evaluated independently, then the difference values and the
effect sizes are calculated for each variable. For these d and ES values, sample
numbers are determined with a specific alpha and power value.
The maximum number of samples determined is the sample number of the study.
• power decreases as α decreases
• power decreases as difference (d) and effect size (ES) decreases.
• power decreases as sample number decreases
• power decreases as standard deviation increases
• power in two-tailed hypotheses is lower than one-tailed hyphothesis
