Abstract
SIMSTAT is a computer program that provides boot-strap confidence inte rvals and estimates distribution parameters for 27 univariate and biva riate statistics. Because it permits variation of the bootstrap sample size, it is a convenient tool for research planning, allowing compari son of power estimates and estimator precision for various estimators and/or sample sizes. SIMSTAT also is a useful tool for studying the ro bustness of various statistics on real-world data and may be helpful i n teaching statistical principles.
