Using SPSS: An Interactive Hands-On Approach

By James B. Cunningham and James O. Aldrich

Book Overview

This practical book can be used as a supplementary text or as a self-help guide through which the reader can learn to use SPSS on their own, and at their own pace. The book uses statistics to teach SPSS, by interacting with the software and learning by inquiry and discovery. The book covers descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, and building graphs.

"This primer is an excellent resource for students learning the basic functions of SPSS, the power of statistics, and the basic premises underlying inferential and descriptive statistics."
-- Robert J. Eger III, Florida State University

"This book provides a tremendous amount of detail and is useful in walking a new user through the steps of using the software. The visuals are helpful and clear, the level of writing is good for beginning students, and the concepts are presented clearly."
--Poco D. Kernsmith, Wayne State University
