초록

Analysis of the commonly used statistical techniques and statistical software packages can improve statistics education. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of statistical techniques in recent sport management research studies published in the Journal of Sport Management (JSM). To do so, the authors reviewed the 222 published articles in JSM between 2006 and 2015. The results indicated that descriptive statistics were the most frequently used in sport management research articles accounting for 57.61% of all statistical techniques used and that SPSS was the most frequently used statistical software. Our findings offer important considerations for statistics education in both academia and practice.
