Tekst achterflap

Ideal for social science majors, Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences applies statistical methods to the social sciences and makes methods more accessible with an emphasis on concepts. It highlights applications throughout, assuming no previous knowledge of statistics and only a minimal mathematical background. It contains sufficient material for a 2-semester course.

The 6th Edition uses examples and exercises with a variety of real data. It includes more illustrations of statistical software for computations and takes advantage of the outstanding applets to explain key concepts, such as sampling distributions and conducting basic data analyses. It continues to downplay mathematics while avoiding an overly simplistic, recipe-based approach to statistics.
