Author Description

For one-quarter/semester courses that focus on the basics in statistics or combine statistics with research methods.The fifth edition of Statistics for the Behavioral and Social Sciences builds off an already well-established approach - emphasizing the intuitive, deemphasizing the mathematical, and explaining everything in direct, simple language - but also goes beyond these principles to further student understanding. By using definitional formulas to emphasize the concepts of statistics, rather than rote memorization, students work problems in a way that keeps them constantly aware of the underlying logic of what they are doing.NOTE: This is the standalone book, if you want the book/access card order the ISBN below;ALERT: Before you purchase, check with your instructor or review your course syllabus to ensure that you select the correct ISBN.
