Url: http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~lane/case_studies/guns/index.html
Creator: Anderson, Craig
Lane, David M.
Publisher: Iowa State University
Rice University
Description: Created by Craig Anderson of Iowa State University, this case study addresses the question: "Does the mere presence of a weapon increase the accessibility of aggressive thoughts?" It concerns the following concepts: quantile and box plots, stem and leaf displays, one-sample t test, confidence interval, within-subjects ANOVA, and consequences of violation of normality assumption. This is a great example of a case study that illustrates many different concepts of statistics.
