Many of the statistical issues involved in speech and hearing research are shared with other areas of medicine. This article is the first in a series intended to stimulate examination of research data in speech and hearing areas using a wide variety of techniques. This article specifically deals with two essential, but elementary, issues. The first is concerned with experimental design and choice of test data. The second, defines and explains statistical terms, concentrating particularly on the inference to the population mean from the sample mean.
