Marcus Reed

Marcus Reed writes with an editorial focus on statistics and quantitative research, including effect sizes, regression models, uncertainty, associations and the numerical results reported in scientific studies.

At CAB Direct, Marcus covers quantitative findings, statistical models and data interpretation. His articles explain what reported numbers represent and distinguish percentages from percentage points, association from causation, model fit from prediction and results within a study sample from conclusions about wider populations.

Each of his articles names him as author with a stated role. Numerical claims and statistical results are checked against traceable sources, figures retain the population and conditions to which they apply, and corrections are dated and remain visible in the article.
