Description

For graduate students in the social and health sciences, featuring essential concepts and equations most often needed in scholarly publications. Uses excerpts from the scholarly literature in these fields to introduce new concepts. Uses publicly-available data that are regularly used in social and health science publications to introduce Stata code and illustrate concepts and interpretation. Thoroughly integrates the teaching of statistical theory with teaching data processing and analysis. Offers guidance about planning projects and organizing code for reproducibility Shows how to recognize critiques of the constructions, terminology, and interpretations of statistics. New edition focuses on Stata, with code integrated into the chapters (rather than appendices, as in the first edition) includes Stata’s factor variables and margins commands and Long and Freese’s (2014) spost13 commands, to simplify programming and facilitate interpretation.
