Description
Statistics for Psychology emphasizes the logic behind statistics by placing definitional formulas center stage. For each procedure, the authors provide definitional formulas (in words) and computational formulas (in numbers and symbols). Emphasizing meaning and concepts rather than just symbols and numbers, this approach discourages rote memorization and helps you master the statistical analysis skills you need.
Joining longtime authors Arthur and Elaine Aron, new co-author and prolific researcher Erin Cooley brings a fresh perspective to the 7th Edition. Her contributions include new examples focusing on social inequality, her area of expertise. Updates to the text's content, examples and coverage of controversies ensure an up-to-date learning experience.
