Statistics: A Tool for Social Research & Data Analysis 11/e AE【含Access Code,刮除不受退】[Healey] 9789814922845

With a new emphasis on the same "real data" professionals use to make evidence-based decisions, Healey's STATISTICS: A TOOL FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH AND DATA ANALYSIS, 11e, introduces fundamental concepts and their practical application to current social issues–no advanced math knowledge required. Examples from daily life illustrate that statistics are not just abstract mathematical constructs but have practical value in government, education, business, media, politics, sports and more. The latest version of IBM's SPSS software is fully integrated, and end-of-chapter SPSS problems are labeled by discipline. Making statistics accessible for even the most math-adverse learners, the text breaks down complex material to help students master key concepts and develop skills they will need as professionals in a social science field–or as statistically literate consumers of social research.
