Authors’ information
: HJP is an Associate professor in medical statistics with a PhD in statistics and is interested in methodological research. LV has a PhD in medical science and has performed labour pain research. We noted a gap between applied researchers that not are aware of the problems with the statistical methods they use. Statisticians are aware of the problem but are used to present these knowledge in mathematical terms that clinicians not are used to. This article is a bridge between the sciences of medical research and statistics to improve applied research.
