(P/B) BASIC STATISTICS

Παρουσίαση

Chris Spatz's text teaches statistical reasoning and problem solving through a wealth of examples from the social and behavioral sciences, education, nursing/allied health, and business fields, as well as examples from everyday life.. Praised for his clear explanations, Spatz shows students how to start with a data set, identify the questions it poses, determine and carry out statistical procedures, and using plain English, tell the story the data reveal.
