Fundamental Statistics for the Social and Behavioral Sciences

By: Tokunaga, Howard T.

Fundamental Statistics for the Social and Behavioral Sciences is designed to help students truly understand statistics--not just how to calculate them, but how to think about them. Guiding students through the logic of statistical reasoning, Howard T. Tokunaga demonstrates how data are used to answer research questions, test hypotheses, and draw meaningful conclusions. With a focus on interpretation and communication, the book empowers students to connect statistical results to real-world research and confidently explain their findings. The Third Edition features simplified language but still highlights recently published research on topics relevant to students, continuing the book's focus on clarity and relevance.
