Recenzii
“This book is an easy and informative read—an excellent introduction to SPSS for the novice, and a handy reference guide for the more experienced user who needs to refresh their memory.”
“Cole Davis’s new book is practical, well written, and very reader friendly, especially by those who are not or would not describe themselves as mathematicians or skilled in the science of numbers. For those wanting to use SPSS, this book clearly explains what the software can do and how to achieve its potential. I particularly liked the way the book does not assume (as so many manuals do) that we are all familiar with statistical terms. It explains what they mean and offers practical examples of how they are used.
As a freelance researcher engaged in many areas of social investigation, I would strongly recommend this book both as a practical and easy to understand guide to the use of SPSS but also for its valuable introduction to data analysis and statistics.”
“The text is clear and well-illustrated. . . . This is a useful book for students and people who are fairly new to social research. It covers a range of non-parametric tests which are often overlooked.”
