This book is distinguished by the fact that it simplifies some very difficult statistical concepts, using minimal mathematics. The aim is to teach the concepts rather than the mathematical formulae or calculations of data analysis.

Statistics Without Maths for Psychology provides an accessible description of key statistical concepts and techniques needed by psychology students, avoiding as much maths as possible. The authors take the approach that statistics is best taught by 'doing' and they employ a wealth of exercises, activities and multiple-choice questions to enable students to practice their new knowledge and skills. The use of SPSS in performing statisitcal tests is explained in detail and fully integrated throughout the text.
