Using step-by-step instructions, this non-technical, applied book leads students, applied researchers, and practitioners to a deeper understanding of statistical concepts by closely connecting the underlying theories of models with the application of real-world data using statistical software. CONTENTS 1. Stata Basics / 2. Review of Basic Statistics / 3. Logistic Regression for Binary Data / 4. Proportional Odds Models for Ordinal Response Variables / 5. Partial Proportional Odds Models and Generalized Ordinal Logistic Regression Models / 6. Continuation Ratio Models / 7. Adjacent Categories Logistic Regression Models / 8. Stereotype Logistic Regression Models / 9. Ordinal Logistic Regression with Complex Survey Sampling Designs / 10. Multilevel Modeling for Continuous and Binary Response Variables / 11.

Kevin Kelloway, Saint Mary's University, Canada Ideal for researchers and graduate students in the social sciences who require knowledge of structural equation modeling techniques to answer substantive research questions, Using Mplus for Structural Equation Modeling provides a reader-friendly introduction to the major types of structural equation models implemented in the Mplus framework. This practical book, which updates author E. Kevin Kelloway's 1998 book Using LISREL for Structural Equation Modeling, retains the successful five-step process employed in the earlier book, with a thorough update for use in the Mplus environment.

Fraser, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Propensity Score Analysis provides readers with a systematic review of the origins, history, and statistical foundations of PSA and illustrates how it can be used for solving evaluation and causal-inference problems. With a strong focus on practical applications, the authors explore various strategies for employing PSA. CONTENTS 1: Introduction / 2: Counterfactual Framework and Assumptions / 3: Conventional Methods for Data Balancing / 4: Sample Selection and Related Models / 5: Propensity Score Matching and Related Models / 6: Propensity Score Subclassification / Chapter 7: Propensity Score Weighting / 8: Matching Estimators / 9: Propensity Score Analysis with Nonparametric Regression / 10: Propensity Score Analysis of Categorical or Continuous Treatments / 11: Selection Bias and Sensitivity Analysis / 12: Concluding Remarks HARDCOVER ISBN: 978-1-4522-3500-4 • ©2015 • 448 PAGES • • online resources
