STATISTICS - SOCIAL STATISTICS

With an exciting new look, math diagnostic tool, and a research roadmap to navigate projects, this new edition of Andy Field’s award-winning text offers a unique combination of humor and step-by-step instruction to make learning statistics compelling and accessible to even the most anxious of students. The Fifth Edition takes students from initial theory to regression, factor analysis, and multilevel modeling, fully incorporating IBM SPSS Statistics© version 25 and fascinating examples throughout. SAGE edge offers a robust online environment featuring an impressive array of free tools and resources for review, study, and further exploration, keeping both instructors and students on the cutting edge of teaching and learning. Course cartridges are available for Blackboard, Canvas, and Moodle.

TABLE OF CONTENTS: Chapter 1. Why is My Evil Lecturer Forcing Me to Learn Statistics? What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here The Research Process Initial observation: finding something that needs explaining Generating and testing theories and hypotheses Collecting data: measurement Collecting data: research design Analysing data Reporting data Chapter 2. The Spine of Statistiscs What will this chapter tell me? What is the SPINE of statistics? Statistical models Populations and samples P is for parameters E is for estimating parameters S is for standard error I is for (confidence) interval N is for null hypothesis significance testing Reporting significance tests Chapter 3.
