Abstract | This [...] text is written for those who use, rather than develop statistical methods. [The author] focuses on a conceptual understanding of the material rather than on proving results. Helpful narrative and numerous examples enhance understanding and a chapter on matrix algebra serves as a review. Annotated printouts from SPSS and SAS indicate what the numbers mean and encourage interpretation of the results. In addition to demonstrating how to use these packages, the author stresses the importance of checking the data, assessing the assumptions, and ensuring adequate sample size by providing guidelines so that the results can be generalized. [...] To further promote understanding of the material [the author] has included numerous conceptual, numerical, and computer-related exercises with answers to half of them in the back of the book.
