Basic Statistics: Understanding Conventional Methods and Modern Insights – eBook

Basic Statistics: Understanding Conventional Methods and Modern Insights, (PDF) for non-statisticians includes basic principles, concepts, and methods commonly used in applied research. What sets this textbook apart is the inclusion of the many advances and insights from the last half century when explaining basic principles. These advances offer a foundation for vastly improving our ability to identify and describe differences among groups and associations among variables and provide a deeper and more accurate sense of when fundamental methods perform well and when they fail. Assuming no previous training, Wilcox introduces students to basic principles and concepts in an easy manner that makes these advances and insights, along with standard ideas and methods, easy to understand and appreciate.
