Data Analysis Using SAS

Autor Chao-Ying Joanne Peng
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 oct 2008
Data Analysis Using SAS is a comprehensive core text focused on key concepts and techniques in quantitative data analysis using the most current SAS commands and programming language. The coverage of the text is more evenly balanced among statistical analysis, SAS programming, and data/file management than any available text on the market. As such, it provides students with a hands-on, exercise-heavy method for learning basic to intermediate SAS commands while understanding how to apply statistics and reasoning to real-world problems. Designed to be used in order of teaching preference by instructor, the book is comprised of two sections: the first half of the text instructs students in techniques for data and file managements such as concatenating and merging files, conditional or repetitive processing of variables, and observations. The second half of the text goes into great depth on the most common statistical techniques and concepts - descriptive statistics, correlation, analysis of variance, and regression -áused to analyze data in the social, behavorial, and health sciences using SAS commands.
Data Analysis Using SAS is a complete resource for Data Analysis I and II, Statistics I and II, Quantitative Reasoning, and SAS Programming courses across the social and behavioral sciences and health - especially those that carry a lab component.

Recenzii

“Peng provides an excellent overview of data analysis using the powerful statistical software package SAS. This book is quite appropriate as a self-placed tutorial for researchers, as well as a textbook or supplemental workbook for data analysis courses such as statistics or research methods. Peng provides detailed coverage of SAS capabilities using step-by-step procedures and includes numerous comprehensive graphics and figures, as well as SAS printouts. Readers do not need a background in computer science or programming. Includes numerous examples in education, health sciences, and business.”
