I am planning to use this book if I teach Statistics again (possibly Fall 2021)
Clearly explains statistical tests in a straight forward manner, making stats more accessible to undergraduate students. I have been separately integrating Excel into the class and this accomplishes both goals with only one required text.
This book is accessible and an easy to read for students research training. Readable and easy to follow.
This book is amazing-I used it as a student and I'm now happy to pass the new edition on to my students.
This title gives hope to the students that struggle with statistics, however I could not use it for my introductory to Research Methods course. The amount of time consumed in learning to do research, lit reviews, etc, did not allow for the inclusion for this text. However, I see it as the first I would consider for my Advanced Research course.
My lack of adopting this as a text was not related to the quality of the text. I have requested that our campus library also purchase some copies of this item. I would highly recommend for a stats course or an advanced research methods course.
Well organized for statistics. Author uses command language and humor to teach
