Statistics for Psychology: How and Why

By James D Evans

Statistics for Psychology was written wholly for teaching and learning. Having taught behavioral statistics for several decades, the author, who became widely recognized for his pedagogical prowess, wanted to develop a textbook that applied the best classroom techniques to the written page. This book does exactly that through a variety of methods, including timely pointing and highlighting devices, strategic reviews and reminders, a focus on the most important material, and opportune anticipation of the student's perspective. Evans's approach also emphasizes basic logic and intuitive concepts over complicated mathematical formulas and proofs - all within the framework of an engaging writing style. Throughout, there is an appropriate balance between conceptual and computational material. This is the right text for students taking their first course in behavioral statistics. It prepares the reader for both immediate applications and advanced courses. The text also provides convenient online links to complimentary bonus supplements for behavioral-statistics instructors and their students at www.ebookslimited.com .
