INTRODUCTORY STATISTICS USING SPSS SECOND EDITION
Herschel Knapp, University of Southern California
The updated Second Edition of Herschel Knapp's friendly and practical introduction to statistics shows students how
to properly select, process, and interpret statistics without heavy emphasis on theory, formula derivations, or abstract
mathematical concepts. Each chapter is structured to answer questions that students most want answered: What
statistical test should I use for this situation? How do I set up the data? How do I run the test? How do I interpret and
document the results? Online tutorial videos, examples, screenshots, and intuitive illustrations help students "get the
story" from their data as they learn by doing, completing practice exercises at the end of each chapter using prepared
downloadable data sets.

STRAIGHTFORWARD STATISTICS
Chieh-Chen Bowen, Cleveland State University
Straightforward Statistics is written in plain language and connects material in a clear, logical manner to help
students across the social and behavioral sciences develop a "big picture" understanding of foundational statistics.
Each new chapter is purposefully connected with the previous chapter for a gradual accrual of knowledge from simple
to more complex concepts. Includes SAGE edge online resources featuring a student study site with direct correlations
to STATLAB Online 2.0.

FUNDAMENTAL STATISTICS FOR THE SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES
Howard T. Tokunaga, San Jose State University
This thematically-based textbook places statistics within the research process, illustrating how statistics are used
to answer questions and test ideas. Featuring accessible writing and well-integrated research examples, the book is
designed to help readers develop an appreciation of how statistics are applied to topics and questions of interest, gain
an appreciation of issues related to the use of statistics, and enhance their understanding of the research process and
the role of statistics within it.

LEARNING STATISTICS USING R
Randall E. Schumacker, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa
Providing easy-to-use R script programs that teach descriptive statistics, graphing, and other statistical methods, this
book shows readers how to run and utilize R, a free integrated statistical suite that has an extensive library of functions.
Covering a wide range of topics, from probability and sampling distribution to statistical theorems and chi-square,
this introductory book helps readers learn not only how to use formulae to calculate statistics, but also how specifi c
statistics fi t into the overall research process.
