Statistical methods applied to social sciences, made available to all through an emphasis on concepts

Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences, 5th edition (PDF) introduces statistical methods to students majoring in social science disciplines. With a focus on concepts and applications, this ebook assumes you have no prior knowledge of statistics and only a minimal mathematical background. It includes sufficient material for a two-semester course. The 5th Edition gives you examples and exercises with a variety of “real data.” It includes more illustrations of statistical software for computations and takes benefit of the outstanding applets to explain key concepts, like sampling distributions and conducting basic data analyses. It continues to devalue mathematics–often a stumbling block for students–while avoiding dependence on an overly simplistic recipe-based approach to statistics.

NOTE: The product includes the ebook, Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences, 5th edition in PDF. No access codes are included.
