Start here with your data

Do you have several continuous variables without clear dependencies?

Yes-> Multivariate statistics

No-> Univariate statistics

Univariate statistics

Categorical and continuous data (?)

More than 2 groups

Analysis of Variance

Dependent variable normally distributed

INSERT TYPE II

INSERT RANDOM FACTOR

INSERT LMM

Dependent variable not normally distributed

Type III Anova

Dependent variable is count data

Dependent variable is 0/1 or proportions

Random factors

Only continuous variables (?)

Only categorical variables (?)

Categorical and continuous variables

[[At least one continuous and one categorical variable| More than 2 groups Analysis of Variance

Only categorical variables

Chi-Square test

Only continuous variables

Non dependent relations? Correlations

Clear dependent relations Regression models
Dependent variable normally distributed
Linear Regression

Dependent variable not normally distributed

Generalised linear model
