Statistics for Political Analysis : Understanding the Numbers Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Statistics are just as vital to understanding political science as the study of institutions, but getting students to understand them when teaching a methods course can be a big challenge.

Statistics for Political Analysis makes understanding the numbers easy.

The only introduction to statistics book written specifically for political science undergraduates, this book explains each statistical concept in plain language—from basic univariate statistics and the basic measures of association to bivariate and multivariate regression—and uses real world political examples.

Students learn the relevance of statistics to political science, how to understand and calculate statistics mathematically, and how to obtain them using SPSS.

All calculations are modeled step-by-step, giving students needed practice to master the process without making it intimidating.

Each chapter concludes with exercises that get students actively applying the steps and building their professional skills through data calculation, analysis, and memo writing.
