Synopsis
This book demonstrates the contribution that statistics can and should make to linguistic studies. The range of work to which statistical analysis is applicable is vast: including, for example, language acquisition, language variation and many aspects of applied linguistics. The authors give a wide variety of linguistic examples to demonstrate the use of statistics in summarising data in the most appropriate way, and then making helpful inferences from the processed information. The range of techniques introduced by the book will help the reader both to evaluate and make use of literature which employs statistical analysis, and to apply statistics in their own research. Each chapter gives step-by-step explanations of particular techniques using examples from a number of fields, and is followed by extensive exercises. The early part of the book provides a thorough grounding in probability and statistical inference, and then progresses through methods such as chi-squared and analysis of variance, to multivariate methods such as cluster analysis, principal components analysis and factor analysis. None of these techniques requires the reader to have a grasp of mathematics more complex than simple algebra. Students and researchers in many fields of linguistics will find this book an invaluable introduction to the use of statistics, and a practical text for the development of skills in the application of statistics.

Condition: Muy bueno. : Este libro demuestra la contribución que la estadística puede y debe hacer a los estudios lingüísticos. El rango de trabajo al que el análisis estadístico es aplicable es vasto: incluyendo, por ejemplo, la adquisición del lenguaje, la variación del lenguaje y muchos aspectos de la lingüística aplicada. Los autores dan una amplia variedad de ejemplos lingüísticos para demostrar el uso de la estadística en la síntesis de datos de la manera más apropiada, y luego hacer inferencias útiles de la información procesada. El rango de técnicas introducidas por el libro ayudará al lector tanto a evaluar como a hacer uso de la literatura que emplea el análisis estadístico, y a aplicar la estadística en su propia investigación. Cada capítulo ofrece explicaciones paso a paso de técnicas particulares utilizando ejemplos de varios campos, y es seguido por extensos ejercicios. La primera parte del libro proporciona una base sólida en probabilidad e inferencia estadística, y luego progresa a través de métodos tales como chi-cuadrado y análisis de varianza, a métodos multivariados tales como análisis de conglomerados, análisis de componentes principales y análisis factorial. Ninguna de estas técnicas requiere que el lector tenga una comprensión de las matemáticas más compleja que el álgebra simple. Los estudiantes e investigadores en muchos campos de la lingüística encontrarán este libro una introducción invaluable al uso de la estadística, y un texto práctico para el desarrollo de habilidades en la aplicación de la estadística.
