Abstract: These series of papers are designed to provide readers with useful information on key concepts, issues and theories when engaging in quantitative research and statistical analysis.The points identified are not exhaustive but are designed to provide the reader with key learning points, as well as direct the reader to additional reading.The papers are designed to be incremental in learning outcomes, with the first two papers providing an overview of rudimentary principles underpinning quantitative research, data handling and quality assurance, before allowing the reader to choose which statistical techniques they need to draw upon to conduct the appropriate statistical analysis.The statistical papers use the software package JASP 18.3.0.It is free of charge and chosen to facilitate practitioners with no access to expensive statistical software packages.Hopefully, this will promote engagement in quantitative research, service evaluation or quality improvement projects.Hopefully, we will see the fruits of these initiatives published in the Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing.
