Social And Behavorial Statistics: A User-friendly Approach

Revised and updated to include the behavioral sciences, the second edition of this introductory statistics book engages students with real-world examples and exercises. Successfully passing a statistics course in sociology and most other social science and behavioral science courses is required for the major and increasingly, at many large universities, is a university-wide requirement. In this newly revised text, the authors make use of stress-busting features like cartoons and real-world examples to illustrate what are often complex and hard-to-grasp statistical concepts. In addition, it also includes the newest and most necessary tools for students to master statistical skills--including SSWS computer exercises, which make handouts or additional books unnecessary.
