The book explains all the types of statistical tests that bachelor students in political science need for their thesis research in a straightforward manner. It takes a hands-on approach to work with statistical software and explains in detail all the steps necessary to run an analysis and interpret the results. I decided to assign this book to my course because I am confident that students will get all the information they need for their research projects from this volume without having to buy several methods books.
This book is a wonderful resource to help students with analysis using the spss software
Very complete title and most of the chapters are going to be part of the topics covered in class
Andy Field's "Discovering Statistics" is the go-to series for students (and instructors) seeking a comprehensive and accessible statistics text. His humorous take on statistical topics is especially welcome and engaging for students.
Excellent and clear introduction to statistics for those students with some familiarity with SPSS. Will be very useful for those students who undertake quantitative studies as part of their master's work.
Lively descriptions, creative examples
Field's textbook provides an ideal amount of theoretical detail and clearcut examples for undergraduates, who can progressively expand their "hands on" data analysis skills with SPSS.
Our library cannot integrate the software with your system for this text.
An essential reference for research at Dissertation stage
This is a very good resource for students and teaching
