Helping Doctors and Patients Make Sense of Health Statistics

Helping Doctors and Patients Make Sense of Health Statistics

"Many doctors, patients, journalists, and politicians alike do not understand what health statistics mean or draw wrong conclusions without noticing… Statistical literacy is a necessary precondition for an educated citizenship in a technological democracy. Understanding risks and asking critical questions can also shape the emotional climate in a society so that hopes and anxieties are no longer as easily manipulated from outside and citizens can develop a better-informed and more relaxed attitude toward their health."
