There's a Stat for That! Summary

There's a Stat for That!: What to Do & When to Do it by Bruce B. Frey

This is a very unique book that provides 40 different statistical procedures in brief modules. For of these procedures there is a description of the right procedure to use for your research question, and when you should use it. It also provides a sense of the logic behind the analysis and how it works. The different analyses are organized into 4 groups -- Frequency Analysis, Group Comparisons, Repeated Measures Analyses and Correlational Analyses.

This is not a book that "teaches" statistics but rather helps those who already have a knowledge of statistics refresh that knowledge and point them in the right direction of what "stat" to us and when to use it.

There's a Stat for That! Reviews

[...T]his is a book that students will keep for their entire career. It will be handy year after year as they are designing and conducting research. It will help them to design studies that answer their exact research hypothesis, rather than designing studies around the techniques they know how to use.

-- Joe Benz, University of Neraska Kearney

Clear writing style, nice tables and charts, and good references to journal articles for each statistic make this valuable for reviewing statistics and for helping decide which statistic to use in a research situation.

-- Dr. T. John Alexander, Texas Wesleyan University

The consistency of the visual presentation of the topics is very clear and helpful. Things to consider is more simple and easy to understand and use than any other supplemental books I have used.

-- Yeonsoo Kim, University of Nevada, Las Vegas

Short, concise treatment of topics is a notable strength of this book. Each test is boiled down to its basics, giving a precise and 'in the nutshell' reference that students are likely to find straightforward and helpful.

-- Nicole McDonald, Cornerstone University
