| 520 8# - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | David Howell's practical approach focuses on the context of statistics in behavioral research, with an emphasis on looking at data before jumping into a test. This provides students with an understanding of the logic behind the statistics: why and how certain methods are used rather than just doing techniques by rote. Students move beyond number crunching to discover the meaning of statistical results and how they relate to the research questions being asked. "Fundamental Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences, International Edition" contains an abundance of real data and research studies as a base and moves through an analysis of data |
