In the next chapter, The Z-Test, we'll explore z-tests in depth: one-sample tests, two-sample tests, and tests for proportions. You'll learn when the z-test is appropriate and how to apply it correctly.

Subsequent chapters cover the t-test (the workhorse of hypothesis testing), the F-test for comparing variances, ANOVA for comparing multiple groups, Type I and Type II errors, power analysis, effect sizes, and multiple comparison corrections. Each chapter builds on the foundations established here.
