Statistics Zusammenfassung

Statistics: A Gentle Introduction Frederick L. Coolidge

With Statistics: A Gentle Introduction, Third Edition, an introductory stats class needn't be difficult or dull! This textbook has been specifically designed to curtail students' anxieties and minimize unnecessary formulas, while providing a comprehensive review of basic statistical designs and analyses. A wealth of additional real-world examples have been included to give a sense of how the science of statistics works, solves problems, and helps us make informed choices about the world we live in. The author minimizes the use of formulas, but provides a step-by-step approach to their solution, and includes a glossary of key terms, symbols, and definitions at the end of each chapter. Every chapter also includes a short story about historical and contemporary statisticians who figured prominently in the evolution of the discipline of statistics.

New to the Third Edition is the thorough incorporation of SPSS throughout, more visual material and figures, and an enhanced treatment of effect sizes, and more detailed explanation of statistical concepts.

Statistics Bewertungen

The approach is 'right on'-making statistics approachable and learnable, rather than a barrier to a student's further education. -- Gerry Dizinno
Coolidge makes understanding statistics a fairly simple task, with clear examples, anecdotes, and analogies. -- Evita G. Bynum
It is a very engaging book which incorporates humor along with clear presentation of statistical concepts. It is not as intimidating as some other texts. It incorporates research methods concepts skillfully. -- Naureen Bhullar
The author provides practical application of statistics to real problems to be solved. -- Karen H. Frith
I believe tone and more elementary explanations are what makes this text a very good tool especially for students who are required to take statistics but not anxious to take statistics. -- Marcia Ditmyer
I think the author did a great job for updating his textbook. I believe that the last edition was a fairly friendly textbook for students in undergraduate introductory statistics, but the update makes this textbook even friendlier. -- Hisanori Kobayashi
I like the conversational writing style and fascinating examples. The background information about important figures in the history and development of statistics separates this text from most others. The SPSS instructions are clear and easy to follow and the interpretation of the SPSS output is excellent. -- Marilyn Gibbons-Arhelger
