In this accessible textbook, award-winning teacher Eric Corty speaks to students in their language, with an approachable voice that conveys the basics of collecting and understanding statistical data step by step. Examples come from the behavioural and social sciences, as well as from recognizable aspects of everyday life to help students see the relevance of what they are studying.
With plenty of opportunities for practice and an emphasis on interpretation, Eric Corty’s engaging textbook is exceptionally well suited for behavioural science students studying statistical practice in their field for the first time.
