Description
This text is written for a one-semester introduction to statistical analysis course in sociology, criminal justice, social work, or psychology in which students will be exposed to the basic concepts and procedures in statistical analysis as it is applied in the social sciences. In Statistical Analysis in the Behavioral Sciences, Raymondo offers a text that provides clear and student-friendly explanations of statistical concepts, in which as much emphasis is placed on the purpose and interpretation of statistical analysis as on the traditional approach of how to perform statistical procedures. Through his clear and conversational writing style, by going beyond a surface interpretation, and by using "real-life" data, Raymondo sparks students' interest and understanding.
