Saucier, Kansas State University • Stuart S. Miller, Kansas State University (Student) This unique intermediate/advanced statistics text uses real research on antisocial behaviors, such as cyberbullying, stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination, to help readers across the social and behavioral sciences understand the underlying theory behind statistical methods. By presenting examples and principles of statistics within the context of these timely issues, the text shows how the results of analyses can be used to answer research questions. New techniques for data analysis and a wide range of topics are covered, including how to deal with "messy data" and the importance of engaging in exploratory data analysis.

Multiple Regression and Beyond HARDCOVER ISBN: 978-1-4833-5859-8 • ©2018 • 528 PAGES • online resources • BEST SELLER APPLIED MULTIVARIATE RESEARCH: Design and Interpretation THIRD EDITION Lawrence S. Meyers, California State University, Sacramento • Glenn Gamst, University of La Verne • A.J. Guarino, MGH Institute of Health Professions Applied Multivariate Research: Design and Interpretation provides full coverage of the wide range of multivariate topics that graduate students across the social and behavioral sciences encounter, using a conceptual, non- mathematical approach. Addressing correlation, multiple regression, exploratory factor analysis, MANOVA, path analysis, and structural equation modeling, it is geared toward the needs, level of sophistication, and interest in multivariate methodology that serves students in applied programs in the social and behavioral sciences. CONTENTS PART I: FUNDEMENTALS OF MULTIVARIATE DESIGN / PART II: BASIC AND ADVANCED REGRESSION ANALYSIS / PART III: STRUCTURAL RELATIONSHIPS OF MEASURED AND LATENT VARIABLES / PART IV: CONSOLIDATING STIMULI AND CASES / PART V: COMPARING SCORES HARDCOVER ISBN: 978-1-5063-2976-5 • ©2017 • 1,016 PAGES • online resources • APPLIED STATISTICS: From Bivariate Through Multivariate Techniques SECOND EDITION Rebecca M. Warner, University of New Hampshire This book provides a clear introduction to widely used topics in bivariate and multivariate statistics, including multiple regression, discriminant analysis, MANOVA, factor analysis, and binary logistic regression. The approach is applied and does not require formal mathematics; equations are accompanied by verbal explanations. Each chapter presents a complete empirical research example to illustrate the application of a specific method. CONTENTS 1. Review of Basic Concepts / 2. Basic Statistics, Sampling Error, and Confidence Intervals / 3. Statistical Significance Testing / 4. Preliminary Data Screening / 5. Comparing Group Means Using the Independent Samples t Test / 6. One-Way Between-Subjects Analysis of Variance / 7. Bivariate Pearson Correlation / 8. Alternative Correlation Coefficients / 9. Bivariate Regression / 10.
