This text provides a complete introduction to a wide variety of statistical techniques frequently used in the social and behavioral sciences. Adapted from the best-selling behavioral science statistics text, Fundamentals of Behavioral Statistics by Runyon and Haber, Elifson’s text provides the reader with an general introduction, an overview of descriptive statistics, and complete coverage of inferential statistics. Many examples of real life issues present statistics as part of a larger social reality as opposed to a vacuum; Current topics such as HIV/AIDS, health, gender, race, inequality, and crime make statistics relevant for students. In its third edition, the text features an emphasis on the interpretation of data, particularly computer analysis using SPSS, the leading package for statistical analysis.
