DESCRIPTION:
"A sound, basic stats book." according to H. Perera. This book is a good introduction to the topic and served me well when I needed a refresher on statistical concepts. Without rehashing comments made by other reviewers, the only shortfalls for me was that structural equation modeling and psychological society reporting guidelines for reporting anova, regression, etc was not covered. While some may consider these advanced concepts (beyond a book of basic stats), APA guidelines or at least generic reporting guidelines are explained in other books, some within a similar price range. It would have greatly extended the re. So-so Kimberly Colley This book tries to break down statistics into an understandable format, but I learn best by doing. While the book has sample problems for you to work out, the answers do not come with explanations, so if you didn't get it right the first time, you have no idea where you went wrong.. "Still statistically challenged" according to Denise Ogerly. I was hoping this book would be the MAGIC book to help me even understand the BASICS of statistics. It didn't! I must just be a mathmatically challenged individual that there is no hope for. My husband (who is very good with numbers) told me this was a good book. So, I guess if you are good with math, this book will help you. But, if you are like me there is no hope for you!!!
