Responsibilities

Scope of expertise

The publication explains introductory and intermediate statistical reasoning using documented models. This record establishes authorship and editorial accountability for work on this site; it does not claim ownership of a registered company, a degree, professional license, institutional appointment, or independent technical certification. Count & Chance does not represent its byline as a licensed medical, legal, financial, or engineering professional. Sources support definitions and methodological boundaries; they do not transfer authority to unrelated claims.

Selected publication work

These entries are not a resume or a list of claimed credentials. They are specific pages where readers can inspect the explanation, inputs, calculations, sources, limits, and update date directly.

WORK 01 / Guide and interactive lab

Confidence intervals as a repeated procedure

Derives the known-sigma interval, asks readers to classify eight fixed intervals, and pairs the answer with a seeded coverage simulation.

WORK 02 / Guide and interactive lab

Selection bias separated from sample size

Compares probability and voluntary response mechanisms, includes a three-size calculation record, and keeps the population target visible.

WORK 03 / Guide and interactive lab

A subgroup reversal readers can recompute

Shows how different group weights reverse an aggregate comparison, then lets readers alter the mix while holding within-group rates visible.

WORK 04 / Applied case collection

Three claim audits with downloadable data

Provides alert, rollout, and survey case files with synthetic CSVs, calculation tables, audit questions, and checked answers.

How to verify the editorial record

The publication's checks are described publicly so the byline does not have to stand in for evidence. Each record below explains a different part of the work.

  3. 03

    Reproducibility kit

    The versioned calculation source, deterministic tests, dependency manifest, run instructions, and SHA-256 checksums published with the site.

  4. 04
