Zusammenfassung:Statistical approach is based on numbers. The justification of the results obtained has a strong foundation in probability equations, statistics and econometrics. The most frequently used aspects are: sample size, interval estimation or probability distributions. After the introduction of empirical data, it is possible to measure correlations and regressions, variances, statistical deviations and many other aspects.
