As such it has overlaps with quantitative reasoning, quantitative literacy, numeracy and statistical reasoning.

A secondary goal is to present statistical literacy as the study of statistics in everyday arguments.  See Schield (2000b) and Schield (2004c).
This features, but is not limited to, the activities of the W. M. Keck Statistical Literacy Project at Augsburg College.
