内容説明
Presenting statistics from the point of view of working statisticians the book gives examples and exercises based on real data. This second edition has a refined and reorganized the text. The presentation of key concepts has been clarified and consolidated; notation has been simplified wherever possible; and many new data sets have been added. To offer students the opportunity to apply their knowledge in a realistic context, and in recognition of the utility of statistical software, computer exercises now conclude each chapter. In conjunction with this text there is - an instructor/solution manual (including data disks for the (IBM and MAC), a printed or computerized test bank, transparency masters, minitab manual and a student version of data desk with disk, MAC only.
目次
- Introduction: what is statistics? Part 1 Looking at data - distributions: displaying distributions - measurement, variation, stemplots, histograms, looking at data, time plots
- describing distributions - measuring centre, resistant measures of spread, the standard deviation, changing the unit of measurement
- the normal distributions - density curves, normal distributions, normal distribution calculations, assessing normality. Part 2 Looking at data - relationships: scatterplots - interpreting scatterplots, smoothing scatterplots, categorical explanatory variables
- least squares regression - fitting a line to data, least-squares regression, residuals, outliers and influential observations
- an application - exponential growth - the nature of exponential growth, the logarithm transformation, residuals again
- correlation - computing the correlation, correlation in the regression setting, interpreting correlation and regression
- relations in categorical data - analyzing two-way tables, Simpson's paradox
- the question of causation - smoking and lung cancer, establishing causation, Part 3 Producing data: first steps - the need for design, sampling, experiments - exercises
- design of experiments - comparative experiments, randomization, how to randomize, cautions about experimentation, other experimental designs
- sampling design - simple random samples, other sampling designs, cautions about sample surveys
- toward statistical inference - sampling distributions, bias, variability, what about experiments?, conclusion. Part 4 Probability - the study of randomness: the idea of probability, the uses of probability
- probability models - sample spaces, assigning probabilities, addition and multiplication rules
- random variables - discrete random variables, continuous random variables
- means and variances of random variables - the mean of a random variable, the law of large numbers, rules for means, the variance of a random variable, rules for variances
- probability laws - general addition rules, conditional probabilities and general multiplication rules. Part 5 From probability to inference: counts and proportions - the binomial distributions, binomial probabilities, binomial mean and variance, sample proportions, normal approximations for proportions and counts
- sample means - the distribution of a sample mean, the central limit theorem
- control charts - control charts, out-of-control signals. (Part contents)
