ESSENTIALS OF STATISTICAL ANALYSIS "IN FOCUS": Alternate Guides for R, SAS,
and Stata for Essential Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences SECOND EDITION
Gregory J. Privitera, St. Bonaventure University • Kristin Lee Sotak, SUNY, Oswego • Yu Lei, SUNY,
Old Westbury
Essentials of Statistical Analysis "In Focus" supports users of Gregory J. Privitera's Essential Statistics for the
Behavioral Sciences, Second Edition who work with a statistical program other than SPSS® or Excel®. Three standalone
parts, each dedicated to R, SAS®, and Stata®, serve as step-by-step guides for completing the "In Focus" exercises in
Privitera's core text. A conversational writing style along with "To The Student" introductions allow students to familiarize
themselves and become more comfortable with each program prior to making computations. Additionally, General
Instruction Guidebook (GIG) sections for R, SAS®, and Stata® provide standardized how-to instructions for using each
program, making the book a valuable reference for students beyond their studies.

THE PROCESS OF STATISTICAL ANALYSIS IN PSYCHOLOGY
Dawn M. McBride, Illinois State University
This new introductory statistics text from Dawn M. McBride, best-selling author of The Process of Research in
Psychology, covers the background and process of statistical analysis, along with how to use essential tools for working
with data from the field. Research studies are included throughout from both the perspective of a student conducting
their own research study and of someone encountering research in their daily life. McBride helps readers gain the
knowledge they need to become better consumers of research and statistics used in everyday decision-making and
connects the process of research design with the tools employed in statistical analysis.
