When describing a particular statistical analysis—especially one that your readers may not be familiar with—it’s a good idea to cite an authoritative statistical source. A few that may be useful for this purpose:
- Biostatistical Analysis by Jerrold Zar
- Introduction to Biostatistics by Sokal and Rohlf
- Categorical Data Analysis by Alan Agresti
- Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-Plus by José Pinheiro and Douglas Bates
