内容説明

Employing the hallmark pedagogical support of his successful comprehensive text, award-winning author, teacher, and advisor Gregory J. Privitera offers a brief and engaging introduction to the field with Essential Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences. Practical examples, integrated SPSS (R) coverage and screenshots, and numerous learning tools make intimidating concepts accessible. Students will welcome Privitera's clear instruction, conversational voice, and application of statistics to current, real-life research problems. WebAssign (R) This title is available on WebAssign, allowing instructors to produce and manage assignments with their students online using a grade book that allows them to track and monitor students' progress. Students receive unlimited practice using a combination of multiple choice and algorithmic questions, and are allowed unlimited access to this edition of the textbook in the same course at no additional cost. WebAssign provides instant feedback and links directly to the accompanying eBook section where the concept was covered, allowing students to find the correct solution.
